David Brewer has done well to come through qualifying here beating Thomas Kromman (Den) WR 1528 6-0,6-2 and Andrea Alviano (Ita) WR 1425 6-3,6-1.
Unfortunately his "reward" is a first round against the 2nd seed Ivan Cerovic (Cro) WR 412. Hopefully David is starting to find...

I've been a tennis fan for many years now and predicted that Henman would never ever reach a grandslam final and I was right. I also predicted back in 93 that Richard Krajicek would win wimbledon and he did in 96.
I will probably get a lot of abuse for saying this on a Pro Murray forum, but my honest opin...
this site is really good. It has everything from top movies and music to personaly interviews that u cant find anywhere other than his site Its really good, check it out
Simply a great win for Andy in the last round against the 3rd seed and 2 times former finalist here, Roddick. So he moves into the 2nd week of a senior GS for the 1st time in his career.
Baghdatis as we know was lucky to get past Mackin in the 1st round but has picked up since then. Even though his 2nd round...
tough match for al, but at least he has played on the show courts before. he's his comments on the upcoming match:
But Bogdanovic summed up the mood that must prevail in the British camp. Yes he was full of admiration as watched Nadal win the French Open just two weeks ago but no he would not let hi...

Markus Schiller (Ger) WR 1528 bt Chris Herbert (Gbr) UNR 6-0,6-2
Just to let everyone know what's happened to GC77 as he hasn't been around for a while:
He says that he's currently in Mexico for a few weeks, he's managing to check out the site most days but hasn't had enough time to log in and post.
He says that hopefully he'll be back in a couple of weeks
Well as you all know Andy finished off his 2nd round match today against Benneteau by winning the 4th set by ease 6-1. Now it's a whole different matter tomorrow when he takes on 2 time Wimbledon finalist Roddick.. As we also know Andy has already beaten Roddick before this season but was on the hardcour...
Alex Slabinsky has been competing in Holland this week, he reached the quarters before losing 4 and 2 to top seed Stefan Wauters who's ranked 251 and has done very well in challengers so that wasn't surprising.
2 more ranking points should move Alex up to about 570.
Alex's mobile hasn't been w...
