Robert Dee

Our report on 22 April suggested that until the British tennis player Robert Dee had won a match that month, he had lost every previous professional match, and that he was therefore the world's worst tennis player.

We now accept that, although Mr Dee lost 54 ITF matches in a row, during the year to March 2008 he won 22 professional matches in Spain where he is based and plays most of his competitive tennis. We apologise to Mr Dee.
