Jamie Baker not playing US Open Qualies
(Preview)
Despite being ranked high enough, Jamie Baker is not playing US Open Qualies for some reason. Strange seeing as he has been playing the USTA Challengers. Ward and Goodall are in. Oli Golding might get a WC.

Simon had set and break lead, failed to win, Mayer and Cilic were non-existent. Against such great clay player as Monaco wh...
