Boys & Girls: J5 Bradfield, UK - clay (Week 31)

So, we have another J5 event in the UK this coming week. Which is nice. Fabio Nestola is playing, which is ridiculous really, for a J5, as he's JR 379. However, it's nice to take part in local events too. (And there's only four players in the top-1000, so he's really the outlier) Well done to the qualifier...
