New Hero

Its not uncommon for a previously unheard of (by the public) player to burst on to the scene during the grass court season. Chris Eaton is an obvious one, Ian Flannagan another. Not quite the same impact we have seen players raise eyebrows on here, even if below national press level. Lee Childs qual...

Didn't notice a thread for this.

If he advances the seed is Peter Polansky (8) CAN W...

Week 20 Futures - Romania F1 ($10k), Bucharest, Clay

Is it just me, or did Romania F1 only appear in this weeks list of Futures very recently? I'm sure I checked last week and it wasn't listed - I thought it had been cancelled!
