A Dream Come True for Boulter

British number one Katie Boulter expressed her excitement about competing at such a legendary venue. 'Growing up, I watched the men's tournament every year, so being part of this historic event is truly an honor,' she shared. 'Winning here as a British player would be a dream come true.'
