With lots of good players down under for AO qualifying next week, this is a very strong $25K; Laura's opponent is inside the top 200, and isn't even seeded. R32: Laura ROBSON (GBR) 228 v. Ipek SOYLU (TUR) 198 (CH 151, Oct. 2016)

L16: Hsieh Cheng-Peng & Yang Tsung-Hua (TPE/TPE) CR 538 (115+423) vs (2) James Cerretani (USA) & Joe Salisbury CR 196 (89+107) A decent playing partner for Joe.

I notice Eleanor Dean is down for the 1st event of the 2017 cycle in Sheffield which takes place between Christmas and New Year. Given her history with injuries always so pleased to see her name appear after any time away from the court.

The big Premier event takes place this week in Lougborough. The top 8 seeds, all ATP ranked, are: Ed Corrie Liam Broady Joel Cannell Luke Oakley Jonathan Gray Oliver Hudson Nicolas Rosenzweig Jonathan Binding Prize money (before any additional event top-up) goes: £1,000 winner, £600 runner-up,...

Here is an insight into Andy's plans once he has finished playing tennis - and a bit before too. Just another example of how he intends to give back to sport after his playing days are over. I have no doubt he will approach this part of his life with the same enthusiasm and professionalism that he has sho...

I have just looked through the latest junior rankings for the boys and it doesn't look like great reading. Most of the boys are due to drop out and there isn't many kncking on the door to replace them. Only Julian and Alex really knocking on the door.Anyone else we should keep an eye out for? 33NORRIE, Ca...

Just 1 tournament over Christmas week a joint men's and women's 15K in HK. I doubt very much that any GB players will turn up.

Couple of things - shout out to James Willstrop (who lives in Harrogate where I am based) who has reached the semis of the above event. It is a big event and James has dragged his ranking back into the top 20 and looks like going higher and maybe top 10, which at the age of 35 is pretty impressive. Well done Ja...

What a poor selection of athletes this year, there must be better candidates - lots of sports with very low profiles and little mainstream TV coverage Elise Christie - short track speed skating; Sir Mo Farah - athletics, Chris Froome - cycling, Lewis Hamilton - F1, Anthony Joshua - boxing, Harry Kane...
