Boys & Girls: Riad 21 - ITF Grade 3 - 2008.
(Preview)
Started yesterday in Morocco and it's on clay. The group from last week should be here, too. Unfortunately, we'll have to wait for a few days for the results (when the ITF wake up). It's a disgrace that such high profile tourneys (they even have a G1 on this tour) don't even have a site.

Johanna Konta, born in Sydney to Hungarian parents, is soon to be given British citizenship having just turned 17 . When that h...

Junior Wimbledon Wildcards
(Preview)
Does anyone have any insightful input as to who the LTA are likely to award Junior Wimbledon wildcards to this year, both in the boys and girls? I understand that Junior Wimbledon is an ITF event but will they be guided by ITF ranking to choose or ATP/WTA points? Any views would be greatly appreciated.
