Week 45: Nashville 75K Challenger
(
1 2 3
)
(Preview)
Richard Bloomfield has made the main draw cut
Jamie Baker is in qualies. It'll be tough this week as he wasn't even on the original alternates list so won't be seeded. He'll have to be at his very best to get any points.
Qualies draw will be available by the morning. Or maybe Vonce can check for us...

Chris Llewellyn qualified to join Graeme Dyce and Michael Thompson in the main draw
Dyce is the 5th seed and plays American Yohansey Williams in rd1. If he reaches the quarters [as he's seeded to do] and wins a round in doubles, he'll be back in the top 100. He slipped out again due to inactivity.
