South African tennis star Kevin Anderson, who lost to Novak Djokovic in straight sets at the Wimbledon final recently, has spoken about the crucial role his wife Kelsey plays in moulding his career.

"I have been married to Kelsey since 2011 and she has been a great partner. She played golf herself at college level, so her coming from a sporting background definitely helps a lot in terms of knowing the sacrifices and dedication required to succeed in sport.
