Aidan McHugh and George Loffhagen were the last Brits standing at Wimbledon in singles, and they make a rapid change to clay, with Aidan top seed here. Anna Loughlan plays a girl who has won a G2 this month Boys R1 (L32) (1) Aidan McHugh v Sumit Sarkar (USA) Jake Hersey v (WC) Rony Martin (SUI) (5) George L...
I see Suzy Larkin has now moved from China to the relative delights of Hua Hin in Thailand - a lovely beach town there. She has a bye in the first round of qualifying, so presumably will play first on Sunday. She is the q5 seed and will have to win two rounds of qualifying to reach the main draw.
QR1: (q1) Richard Gabb WR 682 (CH = 410 in October 2013) vs BYE QR1: Adam Jones UNR vs Patryk Krolik (POL) UNR ***** QR2: (q1) Richard Gabb WR 682 vs Riccardo Chessari (ITA) UNR Billy should again be in the main draw.
7 of the 8 seeds here are British with just one Romanian interloper. Top seed is George Davis, who usually plays Central American tournaments, and is playing his first ITF in the UK. He is drawn against Tennis Europe under 14 team member Harry Lazell who came through qualifying. Full draw at http://ww...
R1: Harriet Dart WR 282 vs (3) Veronika Kudermetova (RUS) WR 187 (CH 186 last month) R1: (6) Tara Moore WR 217 vs (WC) Anna Danilina (KAZ) UNR (CH 334 in February 2013), JCH 3 also from February 2013 at age 17, no ITF activity since June 2015 R1: (2) Naomi Broady WR 109 vs Yana Sizikova (RUS) WR 502 (CH 336 in...
Only the doubles draw out at the moment & there's an interesting Brit pairing with a tough draw: L16: Aljaz Bedene & Dom Inglot CR 434 (379+55) vs (4) James Cerretani & Max Schnur (USA/USA) CR 188 (74+114) I guess Aljaz will be in the main draw.
This one has to have a thread each year, even for just a few players, as the name just tickles me: BOYS: R1 (L48): Josh WILSON (GBR) [15] BYE R2 (L32): Josh WILSON (GBR) [15] 6-4 7-5 Jordi REDELIJK (USA) GIRLS: R1 (L32): Tanysha DISSANAYAKE (GBR) 7-6(2) 6-4 Margriet TIMMERMANS (NED...
After a couple of finals in lower grade events Ewen Lumsden moves up to a G1, joined by Emile Hudd and Jack Molloy (who faces Belinda Bencic's brother) R1 (L64) Mohamad Gomaa (EGY) v Emile Hudd (13) Jack Molloy v Brian Bencic Ewen Lumsden v (10) Igor Gimenez (BRA)
As this clashes with the G4 in Bournemouth, there's less Brits than there might be otherwise. But still a reasonably big contingent. (Because they live over there? Because it's easier and cheaper to get to Dublin than Bournemouth for a lot of people in the north of the country? Because it's carpet not...
With quite a lot of discussion already about this tie and no doubt much more to come, I thought it time we had a specific thread. Having had my own initial thoughts and read the various points made, I remain thinking nothing other than for now this looks a very unfortunate draw and more especially if Simo...
QR1: Santiago Fidalgo Riveiro Gil (POR) UNR vs Marco Wight UNR QR1: Jack Oswald UNR vs John Horoz Garner UNR QR1: Russell Henderson UNR vs Iván Constantino Gijón (ESP) UNR -- Edited by Stircrazy on Sunday 16th of July 2017 11:32:55 AM
QR1: Alexander Rushin UNR vs (q15) Tomas Stillman (USA) WR 1675 (CH = 1399 in September 2015) QR1: Jonathan Binding WR 1878 (CH = 1756 last December) vs Lamar Remy (USA) UNR Farris was second on the qualies acceptance list, but there's no sign of him, so maybe he's crept into the main draw.
A very thin British contingent in qualifying, suggesting that Jodie Burrage has got in direct, once Special Exempts were cleared, and Anna Loughlan probably added to the wildcards. Surprisingly there is one bye in the draw. 2 wins are required for qualification QR1 Tzarina Tuen Matthews v (12) Vio...
At a much lower standard I did the same thing, swapping tennis for golf around age 15.After numerous beatings at tennis individually (but good team success) I loved the advantages of golf over tennis:a) you could compete and win from day one against much better playersb) you could practice much more...
