Despite no GB presence, nonetheless I do like DC semifinal week and of course the play off's. They are up next week and teams are just coming in: Semis France v Serbia - France name Tsonga, Pouille, Herbert/Mahut; Serbia name Lajovic and Krajinovic, Zimonjic and Djere with Troicki joining Novak on th...
I see Chris Froome has won todays time trial and looks certain to win the Vuelta now - amazing job to win both this and the TdF in one year, a bit like winning Wimbledon and the US Open in the same season (if the Giro is the French...not sure what the Aus Open equivalent is, maybe the World Championships). On...

Emilie has migrated to Spain this week (well North Africa to be specific, since that's where this enclave is located). This field is very weak, so if she can win through and gain a draw against anyone but the top 3 seeds, she should have a good chance of finally getting her last counter. And no, you fates,...
Wildcards are discussed on another thread, which generates as much heat as light. Seedings bother me more. I guess, because I am naturally in favour of the plucky underdog; also because I pay less attention to James Ward, just outside the GS DAs, than to Hev, just outside the GS seedings. Grotesquel...
this is just random musings, but i have been thinking about how few worldclass tennis players we have and at the moment the answer is just 1, but then i started to think how many world class sports people we have in this country in general, and is it just the way tennis is played at pro level that makes it sta...
I'll add to this on a random basis: In 2017 GB Women: 112 - Active GB Women (played at least one pro match) 980 - Entries by GB Women in a tournament (1 player in 1 tournament Q or MD = 1 entry) 366 - Unique Events entered (>1 Entry still counts as one unique event) 54 - Different countries in which a GB woman...
QR1: Isaac Stoute WR 860 (CH = 846 last month) vs (q5) Tobias Simon (GER) WR 446 (CH = 415 in February) No doubt Simon will eat Isaac for breakfast, but good on him for giving it a go. Dino & Evo should be in the main draw, the latter as top seed, but given that he's been called up for the DC, I assu...
Kyle has drawn Paulo Lorenzi in R1. So relieved he didn't draw Andy again. Edit The other seed in Kyle's section is Jack Sock. Bedene in in there too. -- Edited by Bob in Spain on Friday 24th of August 2018 07:35:10 AM
