With condolences to the family of Julien, who passed away earlier today. He was with the LTA for a good number of years, the personal coach to Dan Evans, strongly involved with the GB Davis Cup team, the coach of JoKo for a while.... He was also a really fun, pleasant guy. Tennis will miss him.
Well this one nearly slipped through the net. L32: James Marsalek WR 624 v (Q) Andrew Ruppli (SUI) WR 1314 (CH 1222 Sep 2015) L32: (5) Dan Cox WR 553 v (WC) Mousa Shanan Zayed (QAT) WR 2252 (CH 1668 Oct 2012) Decent draws too.
Ema, Ali and Georgie should all be in the main draw. As should Ben Draper and jack Molloy. In qualis, Jeremy G has come through one round but has a hard match next against a very good, but lowly ranked, French boy who plays far better than his ranking (made the semis of the G2 last week in Spain). QR1: Jeremy...

Jade's one of our best teenage prospects, ranked no 5 in the U18s behind Cavaday, Cornish, Broady and Rae. Some more information on her: She splits her training time between the Woodhall Spa club in Lincolnshire where she works with long-time coach David Williams, and the Esporta Sunderland cl...
The Martins and Jake Hersey should be in the main draw. QR1: Sonay KARTAL (GBR) BYE QR2: Sonay KARTAL (GBR) 6-3 6-0 Ielizaveta DIACHENKO (UKR) Sonay's FQR match (against the q2) was suspended, on serve in the first set.
In my opinion, a tough one this time around, with several players in with a shout. There's the girls in Miami, of course. Johanna Konta made the quarters, while Heather Watson made the fourth round. Whose run was more impressive? Meanwhile, Alex Ward picked up a second ITF title of the year in Tunis...
