The second of the North American tournaments loses Emily Appleton from last week's entrants. Jodie Burrage appears to have a good draw against a lowly ranked wildcard to get her first win since July. Live scores are promised at http://www.tennisticker.de/mex/mex2579/sb.html but no sign of them...
Only one entrant but no other events this week (unless I've missed one) so here goes just for Emile: R1 (L32): Emile HUDD (GBR) [8] 6-3 6-2 Nemanja MALESEVIC (BIH) R2 (L16): Emile HUDD (GBR) [8] 6-2 6-2 Riccardo DI NOCERA (ITA) Doubles: R1: Johan GARPERED (SWE) / Emile HUDD (GBR) 6...
Couldn't readily see a thread that this would fit into - but it's part of general tennis discussion, so ... congratulations to Stuart Fraser, who has been named as The Times' tennis correspondent. Always comes across as pleasant and well-informed - good to see that get its due reward (even if it does m...

Qualifying has started and I was down there today at Wirral. I have to say the standard in qualifying is getting higher and higher each year and there was some terrific talent on show. Indianna Spink - just 14, but far too good for the two girls she played against. Big serve, very clean powerful forehand...
QR1: (q1) Ewan Moore WR 1377 (= CH) vs BYE QR1: Jamie Whiteford UNR (CH = 898 in June) vs (qWC) Matija Matic (CYP) UNR QR1: (q3) Luke Oakley WR 1347 (= CH) vs BYE QR1: BYE vs Jeremy Gschwendtner UNR QR1: BYE vs Oliver Hudson UNR (CH = 986 in April 2012) QR1: Luke Simkiss UNR vs Rodion Domanin (RUS) UNR QR...

I know that in JWH we have our very own tennis/basketball hotshot, but I doubt even he has ever made a shot like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz-jNoHjdb0
I expect this is going to be another short thread... QR1: Samuel Beddow UNR vs BYE QR1: Joseph van Meter (USA) UNR vs Darryl Hale UNR -- Edited by Stircrazy on Sunday 20th of November 2016 06:40:43 PM

Now here is a turn up for the books. QR1: Neal Skupski UNR (CH 932 Nov 2010) v (WC) Andrea Grazioso (ITA) WR 1294 (=CH) Edit: the event is a "+H".-- Edited by Stircrazy on Sunday 20th of November 2016 11:17:59 AM
Predictions last year were notoriously difficult due to all the injuries - Katie Boulter, Laura Robson, Sam Murray, Jade Windley, Eleanor Dean etc and the fact that quite a few of the promising players failed to make the jump up to the next level Again this is difficult to call, so I might need some thin...
During the quiet period, it may be time to look at how you expect the 2016 rankings to pan out. Quiet a few of us fell foul to the Bedene switch, the likes of Tom Farquharson deciding to hardly play at all and the numerous injuries during the year that have held back players I need to have a think, but I might...
