Alexis Canter is again seeded three - albeit on a different continent this week - as he seeks another G2 final.

Looks like there might be a(nother) new Brit - 17-year-old Jovana Knezevic WR 1208 (CH 993 last Sep) is shown on the last WTA ranking list playing for Cyprus but as GB on the ITF site, and it's clear (from the fact that Google's summary for her ITF page still shows Cyrpus) that this has changed very recent...

A few Brits giving it a go in qualies: QR1: Dan Smethurst WR 446 (CH = 234 in June 2014) vs Clay Thompson (USA) WR 453 (= CH) The q1, Alex Bolt, lies in wait if Dan gets through that one.

Our trio all have reasonable draws, though Sultanov won 5 consecutive G3s last year in and around his home country, while Jay and Ema's opponents have won a handful of matches at ATP/WTA level.

A couple of heart-breakers: QR1: Young Barnaby Smith lost in a third set tie-breaker against an 18 year-old ranked 1662 And Josh Paris lost 5-7 in the third too against a player WR 1738 Bill Harris was also beaten 6-2 6-4 by an unranked 18 year-old But James Allemby won 6-0 6-0
R1: Naomi BROADY (GBR) 111 [3] vs. Lyudmyla KICHENOK (UKR) 341 (CH 156 07/2014) Kichenok's ranking may be a bit misleading; she has been playing a lot of doubles with her sister on the WTA tour (both WR top 60 in doubles). Therefore, she has not entering singles every week, and indeed, consequently, t...
