FQR: (q3) Jessica Simpson WR 1153 v Ye Qiu Yu (CHN) UNR (16yo junior WR 53) or Olivia Pimia (FIN) UNR (18yo junior WR 585) I imagine the Chinese player will be tough to get past.
His thoughts on the harsh realities of the Futures circuit taken from an interview he's just given BBC Radio Jersey. He sounds like a young man with no illusions about his chosen career path, his head screwed on the right way & hi...

Neil Pauffley has won all 3 of his Futures singles titles on carpet - and 2 of them were won here the last two years, unseeded in 2012 and seeded 2 in 2013. Most Futures are glad to be able to report their former winners going onto bigger and better things, but not this one ... the preview on the Hambach site a...
It's a quiet spell for our top juniors before many head to the Far East or Spain in October.

It looks, cross fingers, like Danny Manlow has just sneaked into the MD. All this 'playing four Q rounds and then getting the second seed' stuff is enough to bring anyone down. Farris is, seemingly, in the MD too. QR1: Christopher Helliar v Ben Hoogland (USA) UNR
