BBC presenter’s daring outfit leaves fans in awe as they brand Wimbledon host ‘gorgeous’
BBC’S new Wimbledon presenter Isa Guha has been dubbed “gorgeous” after her daring outfit left fans in awe.
The broadcaster is part of the BBC‘s presenting team for this year’s SW19 tennis tournament, which began on Monday.
Guha’s bold outfit at Wimbledon left viewers stunned earlier this week.
Her bright pink suit appeared to lift the gloom over a cloudy South London as fans commented: “Our screens are illuminated when you’re on.”
Then earlier this week she took to Twitter to share two photos of herself and a group of pals enjoying the Ashes at The Oval.
Accompanied with an ENGvsAUS hashtag, she captioned them with: “From Wimbles to the Oval. Cmon on girls.”
And that led to a host more of flattering comments for the 38-year-old former England women’s cricketer.
“You are looking gorgeous on the BBC Wimbledon coverage,” wrote one admirer.
“Adore you, Isa,” said another.
And a fellow fan tweeted: “You are a joy to watch and listen too.”

Guha has established herself as one of the leading presenters on BBC’s sports coverage.
But she originally made her name as a top level cricketer.
She was the first woman of South Asian origin to represent England in any sport at just age 17.
The right-arm bowler featured in a Test encounter against India during their tour in 2002 as well as playing in the 2002 Women’s Tri-Series.
Isa also obtained the BBC Asian Network Sports Personality of the Year award that same year.
But Guha wasn’t done there – three years later she helped England to regain the Ashes on home soil for the first time in 42 years, and figured at the World Cup later on that season.
And by December 31, 2008, the cricket legend was ranked world number one bowler in the ICC Women’s Day One international rankings.
However 2009 was arguably the pinnacle of Guha’s career where she was part of the England team who dominated cricket as they won the Ashes, the World Cup and the T20 World Cup.
After earning 113 caps, Guha decided to bow out of the sport in 2012 as England’s second highest wicket taker in the all-time England Women’s one-day international list and the sixth highest in the world.
