British youngster Kyle Edmund is looking forward to the Queen's Club tournament next week, after earning a wildcard to the event.

British youngster Kyle Edmund has been rewarded for his recent progress, with a wildcard for the Queen's Club tennis tournament.

The 18-year-old from East Yorkshire has already won twice on the senior Futures Tour and is ranked inside the world's top 450.

He entered the junior section at the French Open, reaching the quarter-finals, and is pleased with his invitation to play alongside the likes of Andy Murray and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga next week.

"It's really nice," Edmund said. "It's such a prestigious tournament to play.

"It's always so strong because there's limited grass-court tournaments but it will be a good challenge.

"I want to do well but it's also a great learning week to practise with those guys. If I get to hit with the top guys it will be great. I'll take as much information on as possible. I'm really looking forward to it."

The Queen's Club tournament begins on Monday.
