Adam Thornton-Brown and Alex Jhun should be in the main draw here. QR1: Jack Oswald UNR v Edoardo Zecchinelli (ITA) UNR QR1: (q7) Aswin Lizen WR 1863 v Balazs Farkas (HUN) UNR (it's his first ever ITF Pro Circuit match)
L32: Harriet Dart WR 743 v (WC) Nozomi Fujioka (JPN) WR 800 (CH 779 in May) The winner is likely to play the top seed in R2, but given that the top seed is Cadar, that may not be as daunting prospect for Harriet as it sounds. Got to win this match first, of course!
Not the snappiest event title I have come across, but Emily Arbuthnott starts her preparation for the US Open here, and is joined by rookie qualifier Ryan Storrie who, like Coup Droit in the General Tennis discussion section, I hadn't come across before. For the benefit of anyone who hasn't visited t...
Jodie Burrage is one of the top juniors missing from the Nationals, and she is our sole representative in this G2 event. R1 (L32) Mira Antonitsch (AUT) v Jodie Anna Burrage (GBR)
L32: Farris Fathi Gosea WR 927 v (4) Daniel Garza (MEX) WR 606 (CH 294 in 2012) H2H 0-1, 3 sets, Edwardsville last year. Garza is on a 5-match winning streak in Mexican Futures, having won Mexico F8 early last month.
Ned Boone should be in the main draw here. Joe Cooper was first Alt but has ended up having to go through qualifying. FQR: Joe Cooper UNR v Yannick Sankara (BUR) UNR BUR = Burkina Faso, by the way (the other obvious option, Burundi, is BDI if I remember correctly)
Neil P should be in the main draw. QR1: Oliver Hong UNR v Christopher Waite (GER) UNR QR1: (8) Sebastian Rey WR 1575 v Stefanos Tsitsipas (GRE) WR 2208 CH 1978 (Jan 2014) age 15

A big British representation at this G4 event as well. Calum MacGeoch gets the gold star today, beating the number 2 seed, but lots of other wins too: BOYS: Calum MACGEOCH (GBR) 3-6 6-3 6-1 Felipe CUNHA SILVA (POR) [2] Barnaby SMITH (GBR) [11] 6-3 6-0 Goncalo ANDRADE (POR) Sam RICE (GBR)...
The GB men playing North American Futures this summer get a 15K at last - Liam Broady (one of the top seeds), Ashley Hewitt, Richard Gabb, Josh Milton and Luke Bambridge should all be in the main draw. QR2: (q3) Scott Clayton WR 1179 v Zubair Virjee (CAN) UNR or Andre Selem de Stefano (BRA) UNR
QR1: Joe Cooper WR v Olivier Charroin (FRA) UNR (CH 532 in 2008) Edited for obvious reasons...-- Edited by Stircrazy on Sunday 10th of August 2014 11:31:47 AM
