Jay Clarke is joined in Austria this week by Alexis Canter, who draws the third seed, a semifinalist last week. R1 (L32) (3) Louis Wessels (GER) v Alexis Canter (8) Jay Clarke v (WC) Matthias Haim (AUT)
Would you Adam & Eve it? R1: (1) Rameez Junaid & Adil Shamasdin (AUS/CAN) CR 123 (66+57) vs Ken Skupski & Neal Skupski CR 249 (125+124) Not quite as bad as in Aix, perhaps, but still a pretty wretched draw.
Maia Lumsden is seeded here, whilst Ryan Storrie was due to play his final qualifier today. If Ryan is successful he will probably play again tomorrow, and there are links to live scores and streaming from the tournament home page http://www.tcsantacroce.com/itf-under-18/ Girls R1 (L64) (8) Mai...
Just wondering where people stand on the KP situation. I admit that I am a big fan of his. Purely from a sporting perspective, he is box office and clearly still able to produce the goods. I accept that he can be difficult to manage at times. It would be safe to call him a "Maverick" and I am su...
Ed carries on ploughing a lone furrow & keeps plugging away, but he's drawn the short straw again: L32: Ed Corrie WR 233 vs (2) Go Soeda (JPN) WR 85 (CH = 47 in July 2012)
L64: BYE vs (2) Andy Murray WR 3 In the next round Andy will play either Philipp Kohlschreiber or a qualifier. The other seeds in his half of the draw are Nishikori (4), Raonic (5) & Ferrer (7). The top seed is Roger the Lodger.

This was something i was thinking about the other day, prior to seeing the recent post on ITF prizemoney increases. The ATP should priotitize getting together and petitioning all the Grand Slams to contubute a small fixed % of their earnings to help fund Challenger level tournaments. Because the GS...
Marcus Willis is third seed in the doubles, playing with Spaniard, Jose Checa Calvo. Edit: have just noticed, as a result of checking on its location that "Móstoles" (situated south west of Madrid) has a stress mark over the "o", so I've added it!-- Edited by Stircrazy on Thu...

He is suggesting that the top players could help to fund the futures events. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/tennis/27496927 Oh. And d...
