Heather Watson has painted a bleak picture of the future of British tennis and called on its governing body to provide more support to promising young players.

Watson joined compatriots Andy Murray, Johanna Konta, Dan Evans, Cameron Norrie and Liam Broady in exiting Roland Garros after a 7-6 6-4 defeat by Fiona Ferro, leaving no Britons in the second round of a Grand Slam for the first time since 2013."I feel like we've got a good little group of players right now, but little.
