On behalf of all proud Gold Coasters, I wish to acknowledge the great work of Samantha Stosur. In 1995, at just 11 years of age, Sam Stosur wrote a letter which she put in a time capsule. I was privileged to be at her school, Gaven State School, when that time capsule was pulled out. In that capsule she wrote about her joy in looking forward to winning a grand slam.
