LESS than 48 hours after her acceptance, Heather Watson will find out her Olympic Games path this morning as the tennis draws are made for London 2012.

On Tuesday, the 20-year-old Guernsey girl was offered a place to compete in the high-quality 64-strong singles competition after the withdrawal of Alona Bondarenko through injury.

That is on top of her previously-confirmed doubles appearance with Laura Robson and the late wildcard comes as a result of Watson's recent surge up the world rankings to number 67.
