It's a strange week when Spain is the closest place to go to find a tournament that is not on clay! The draw could be better - Josh gets one of the highest-ranked unseeded players and the unseeded Brits both play seeds in R1 - Matt getting the 2nd seed in R1 for the 2nd week in a row: L32: (6) Josh Milton WR 578 v...

Italy v Great Britain The venue is very hard to predict because Italy seem to do their best to avoid ever playing two home ties in the same place.
