This is the top graded open event this week, with significant British interest including surprisingly (given it is only a Grade 2) Matilda Mutavdzic. Kylie Bilchev is into final qualifying, but Will Nolan lost out at the same stage Boys R1 (L32) Biagio Gramaticopolo (ITA) v Lui Maxted Girls R1 (L32...
The Winter Cup season started this weekend with qualifying for the under 12s. The girls team of Hannah Klugman, Amalia Widdowson and Sophie Bekker came through a competitive match with the host nation France recording a 3-0 win, and backed that up with a comfortable 3-0 result against Hungary (2 &...
The city of Almetievsk is in Tatarstan, deep inside Russia, and this event has attracted just 2 non-Russians in either main draw. One of them is Peter Alam, who unsurprisingly has teamed up with the other (a Swiss lad) for the doubles. Peter's round 1 match is last on court today. R1 (L32) (WC) Vladisla...
Q1: POPESCU, Anna (GBR) 1181/639 v DUCA, Gabriela (ROU) 1108/526 CH=723/448 30/4/18 -- Edited by Peter too on Saturday 15th of February 2020 07:28:41 PM
I know I'm heading into taboo topic here and I'll either get my account closed down and/or the LTA show up at my door. Any coaches, players or parents here can give me an actual reason why the LTA refuses to acknowledge foreign help they have received with their players etc etc? I know that most of the Br...
No idea whether it's hard or clay - bloody ITF site still isn't working! QR1: Max Andrews WR 1665 (CH = 1553 in November 2012) vs (qWC) Evan Kennedy UNR -- Edited by Stircrazy on Sunday 16th of February 2020 12:38:24 PM
Q1: CARRERAS, Amanda (GBR) 6 331 v BIZHUKOVA, Tamara (RUS) 1220 CH=612 2013 It's a strange decision by Amanda to play these high level ITF events on Hard courts in Egypt. She usually plays Clay court events, so you would think she would either go for high level ITF clay events or, if she was after exper...
L28: (WC) Brian Shi (USA) UNR (CH = 1193 in August 2018) vs (7) Cameron Norrie WR 61 (CH = 41 last May) L28: (8) Kyle Edmund WR 64 (CH = 14 in October 2018) vs Yasutaka Uchiyama (JPN) WR 94 (CH = 78 last November)
Again, I've no idea of the draw order, for all that it matters: QR1: Lucas Grandouiller (FRA) UNR defeated (qWC) Joseph White UNR by 4-6 6-4 [10-8] QR1: (q4) Rémy Bertola (SUI) WR 1148 defeated Philip Sikman UNR by 2 & QR1: Shunsuke Wakita (JPN) WR 1892 defeated Nicholas Adesalu UNR by 1 &...

I wanted to say how terribly sad this news was today. Whatever happened between her and her boyfriend, for it to end in her death is a terrible and unjust tragedy. The court system is merciless and pursues people and many would agree that is right. As someone who has been through it, I know how she reac...
