Boys & Girls: Mesika Junior Open, Israel - Grade 3 (Week 46)

The week's top grade event sees Emily Smith and Mason Recci in action again. Perversely though Emily was seeded in the G2 event, the G3 is actually stronger, and she is therefore unseeded (there was more choice of tournaments last week) and faces a potentially tricky R2 match as a result. Mason will ag...

Alex Sendegeya won the doubles last year with Borna Coric, so needs a good week to avoid a significant drop in the rankings. R...
