    Leading New Zealand tennis coach Clint Packer believes the national governing body are set to benefit from top women's player Lulu Sun

    Leading New Zealand tennis coach Clint Packer believes the national governing body are set to benefit from top women's player Lulu Sun


    The 23-year-old switched allegiances to New Zealand earlier this year - after previously representing Switzerland.

    Following her upset win in the first round of Wimbledon - Packer says having Sun compete under the Kiwi flag is a victory in itself.



    Sun plays her second round match overnight tonight - against a fellow qualifier - Ukranian player Yuliia Starodubtseva [stara-DUUB-sih-VA).
