Mr. David Cull, who was a Tennis Professional at Lord’s from 1957 to 2002, and Head Tennis Professional for 27 years from 1975, died on 15th February. Such was David’s contribution to MCC, and to tennis in particular, that he was awarded a Members’ Testimonial in 2002, a special dinner in the Long Room and was elected to Honorary Life Membership of the Club.
David’s funeral will be held on Thursday 26th February at 4pm at South West Middlesex Crematorium, Hounslow Road, Hanworth, Feltham, Middlesex, TW13 5JH (tel: 020 8894 9001). After the cremation, only family and close friends will be invited back to the house. The Tennis and Squash Courts at Lord’s will be closed on that day as a mark of respect to David.
David will be missed throughout the world of tennis, and especially at Lord’s.
