It's a hard task to find someone to fill the shoes of Dylan Alcott.
That is at least the challenge for Heath Davidson, the man charged with leading Australia's wheelchair tennis on the world tour as attention turns from the red dirt of Roland-Garros to the green grass of Wimbledon.
Last week's French Open was the first occasion Davidson had appeared in a grand slam event without his best friend, Alcott, who retired after the Australian Open in January, just two days after becoming 2022 Australian of the Year.
The highest-ranked and sole Australian to take home any silverware at the Roland-Garros across any format, Davidson finished runner-up in the men's quad wheelchair doubles alongside his new Brazilian teammate, Ymanitu Silva, and also advanced to the semifinals in singles on debut at the event.
