Just wanted to pass on my best wishes to Annie K who tied the knot today. I hope you had a wonderful day and I wish you a lifetime of happiness together. I think it goes without saying that she will have been a stunning bride. Hopefully we get to see a few pics!

Katie Swan said when interviewed after last week's GA event that the Orange Bowl would be her only other event this year, which leaves Jay Clarke and Ryan Storrie as the two Brits here. Live scoring is promised at http://www.tennisticker.de/mex/mex2579/sb.html but has yet to start. http://co...

The Ilie Nastase group comprises him, Mr Wawrinka, Mr Nadal and Mr Ferrer. Mr Djokovic received Mr Federer, Mr Berdy...

Edit Should have added that he will play the winner of Makiguchi (WR 709) and Montero (WR 710) in the 2nd round. The other seed in his section is Orland...
