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...

I'm not sure if the overall increase in strength of the Q draw relative to recent 10Ks is due to thi...
