In 1997 Tania travelled to Rio de Janeiro and returned to England as world junior champion. She has also reached the final of the British Open and has been as high as four in the world rankings (2003 & again in 2007). However continuity has been hampered by a catalogue of illnesses and injuries that have prevented her from competing a great deal in between the two high points.

To prove beyond doubt that she was back to her best at the CIMB Malaysian Open in July 2006 she stormed to the final leaving Vanessa Atkinson and Natalie Grinham in her wake before falling to Nicol David in a five game final thriller.

Two months later she was a member of the England side which won the Women's World Team Championship in Canada, which she followed up by overturning the seedings to reach the final of the Cathay Pacific Swiss Privilege Hong Kong Open.

With 2006 also seeing her win the British National title and taking number one spot in the English rankings too, and the first half of 2007 including semi final sports in WISPA 'majors', it is clear that her sustained good health is paying great dividends on court and she is certainly poised to keep her upward curve.
