Week 10 - France F4 ($15,000) - Lille (Hard)


Dan Smethurst and Alex ward are DAs and it looks like Lewis Burton may have scraped in too - he was 3rd Alt and the 6th-8th Alts are the top 3 seeds in qualifying.

QR1: Tom Mannings UNR v (q12) Dimitar Grabul (MKD) WR 1931

Main draw is out

Burton plays Bozoljac, probably the worst draw he could have asked for, will have to play really well

Ward plays (4) Mertens which again isn't the best draw

Smethurst gets a qualifier ranked in the 1000's

What on earth is Kenny De Schepper doing in a 15k?

No doubt because the only ATP is Indian Wells and the only Challengers are in Chile and Japan!

 No idea he was yesterday one win away from the top 100, but he is the defending champion here. I predict (and hope) that Vinci will knock him out in R1 though.

I thought players in the top 150 couldn't enter Futures, do you know what I mean?

I think that's right, but if you are ranked 101-150 you can get a wildcard (same as players 11-50 can't enter challengers but can ask for a WC).
