Britain's Laura Robson hopes that she can play her best tennis at Wimbledon later this month.

Laura Robson has said that she is hoping for a strong run at Wimbledon later this month.

The British number one has beaten highly-ranked players at her last two Grand Slam tournaments, knocking Kim Clijsters and Li Na out of the US Open before getting the better of Petra Kvitova in Australia.

"I tend to play well in the big matches so I'm hopeful it will stay that way for Wimbledon," ESPN quotes the 19-year-old as saying.

"I think all players tend to try to hit their best around the slams and peak for those events. I have practiced at Wimbledon on the courts so I'm getting ready and hopefully it will go well."

Robson has only progressed past the first round at Wimbledon once in her four previous appearances at the tournament.
