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. Last year Johanna Konta defeated Laura Robson in the final, and went on to win a match in the 50K as well. Accordin...

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. However Ahmed's first opponent, though highly ranked, does not have much of a track record on clay. R1 (L64) David Thomson (GBR) Vs (6) N...

After a feast of junior tennis over the Easter period there are very few British players in action this week (though several are playing in the combined $10K events at Bournemouth).

The second week of Grade 4s sees George Morgan go for back-to-back titles, and the first seed he is scheduled to meet is the Irish boy (Ciaran Fitzgerald) who he beat so convincingly last week. Fitzgerald's first match is against ITF debutant Luke Bambridge, one of our leading 1995s, who came through...

There's a strong British presence here, but Ben Davis has really drawn the short straw.

Jennifer Ren was scheduled to make her comeback here, but unfortunately is a late withdrawal, but Jessica Ren has joined three of the girls who played the Spanish Grade 3 last week.
