QR1: (q6) Edoardo Graziani (ITA) WR 1150 (CH = 1149 last month) vs (qWC) Amil Dodds UNR Billy Harris should be in the main draw, just missing out on a seeding.
A stronger field than week 1, as some of the Wimbly juniors players show up. However, suddenly going back to clay is not ideal. Boys: Matt Rutter is top seed, and safely through to R2 Roy Keegan, seeded 3, however, got beaten easily by Anthony Weingarten, 2 & 2 Hugo Coquelin - our UNDER 16 National Ch...

This is now becoming very real with the announcement of almost all the squads yesterday, with THREE home nations involved out of four it seemed entirely appropriate to start a separate thread.
The long-running Trofeo Bonfiglio usually acts as a warm-up for most of the top Juniors prior to the French Open. Local Covid restrictions saw it postponed to July, where it now precedes the European Championships in Switzerland, or at least it does for most European nations. Unfortunately there...

I was pleased to find videos of Evonne Cawley's matches against Hana Mandlikova and Tracy Austin, from 1980 on youtube. The full matches as well. Lots of other Hana Mandlikova matches as well.
A few weeks ago we talked about following players from the start of their Wimbledon journey to the eventual winner. With no pre qualies, it therefore seemed reasonable to start in qualies at the first stage. Im not sure who the lowest ranked in each event are , but selecting our national under 18 wild ca...
So with the grass court season starting in Nottingham at the weekend, and events across UK, Germany and Spain (and a mens M15 in Italy), which British MENS player do you think will get the most MAIN DRAW wins in DOUBLES over the period through until the end of Wimbledon. Note, this includes MIXED. I hav...
