Episode 011 – Jordanne Whiley MBE | From Halesowen to Buckingham Palace
|
Jordanne first had a tennis racket placed in her hand at the age of three and has never looked back. She excelled through the ranks to win junior and senior titles. Jordanne was born with brittle bone disease which means she plays her tennis in a wheelchair – which I still find remarkable that anyone can do that.
|
Having a disability made school life tricky for Jordanne, who endured bullying and isolation because she was “different”. But Jordanne’s father Keith (also born with brittle bone disease) was a paralympic medalist and encouraged her to pursue her beloved tennis. Jordanne’s mother gave up work to care for Jordanne and has been her biggest supporter, making many sacrifices to ensure Jordanne made every tennis tournament.

Jordanne and her family have been rewarded with enormous success. She is Britain’s most successful tennis player EVER and Tokyo in 2021 will be Jordanne’s 4th Paralympic tournament, with 2 paralympic bronze medals in the trophy cabinet already. In Tokyo, Jordanne will be aiming for a gold medal – the only honor to elude her. Jordanne was awarded an MBE for services to wheelchair tennis in 2015.

Outside of tennis, Jordanne is a financial services professional, a property investor, and mother to a young son. After tennis, property is her big passion and Jordanne looks forward with excitement to becoming full-time in property in the future.
