The man who was given a restraining order for stalking British tennis player Emma Raducanu earlier this year has been caught trying to apply for tickets for this month's Wimbledon Championships. Tournament organisers blocked the man's attempt to enter the public ballot and have promised beefed up security for the event. It comes as another British player, Katie Boulter, has revealed the scale of online abuse she's suffered, including death threats. Sports reporter Dana Johannsen spoke to Lisa Owen.
