This event is as strong as many Grade As coming just before the French Open, and there has been a terrific result today for Oliver Golding, who has come through qualifying and claimed a first win at this level over a top 100 player. His reward is a crack at the world number 6 Sadly Hannah James has again wit...

Heather Watson returns to Junior action for the first time since the Australian Open as top seed. The tournament is a very good one to win, as it offers a wildcard to a 50K event for the winner.

It's last chance saloon for any direct acceptances for Wimbledon, with Dave Thomson and Ahmed El Menshawy requiring semi-finals here probably, which is a big ask.
