QR1: (q3) Richard Bloomfield WR 287 v Jared Easton (AUS) WR 783 On the face of it a godo match for Richard - Easton has been in a rut of late and hasn't won a match since March. Easton does however lead the H2H 1-0 and has a 2-0 record against Brits. The other seed in the section is Luka Grecorg WR 363 Edit: cha...

QR1: Max Gregor UNR v Ruben Ruiz Pastor (ESP) UNR Pastor has a 2-8 record in futures qualifying but with the WR 397 in the section I don't see much hope for Max Morgan should be seeded when the MD is released

Other seed in his section is 5th seed Juun Mitsuhashi WR 440. Will do exceedingly well to qualify from that Edited to reflect the fact that the tournament will be...

R32: Jamie Baker WR 249 v (2) Frederico Del Bonis (ARG) WR 122 We are not having much luck with our draws at Challenger level this week. In my opinion this is arguably the worst draw possible. Del Bonis is a very fast rising 19 year old who has won a Challenger (Rome-2) and has made two other Challenger...
