As in Manchester & Ilkley, the "pesky foreigners" are few in number in the doubles, hence the separate thread. R1: (ALT) Adam Skalsky & Mark Whitehouse UNR vs Sam Hutt & Jathan Malik CR 3283 (1422+1861) R1: Alexander Jhun & Stefan Sterland-Markovic CR 3283 (...
Lovely surprise here, very good choice of event! Q1: (1) James Ward WR 154 v Bye Seed in his section is (8) Marcelo Arevalo (ESA) WR 474 so hopefully 12 points and an ATP main draw place here. Will play either Santiago Gonzalez or Tigre Hank in his first match. -- Edited by British_is_Best on Saturday 1...
I know this topic pops up a lot, but thought it was worth a thread... how long now do we think until the LTA lays on more challenger tournaments? The futures are great for points from a GB perspective, but to really crack on and test themselves a lot of our players need to be playing at a high level more frequ...
L32: (SE) Kyle Edmund WR 312 v Marc Giner (ESP) WR 267 (CH 245 April 2013) Saw Marc Giner play in Murcia last year when Kyle played there. Solid player but nothing spectacular. Kyle certainly has a chance in this one.

According to TF Naomi is planning on not coming back from her foot injury but instead going into coaching. Sad news if true, but maybe the injuries have taken their toll

Cox and Edmund should be in the main draw here. Golding was on the alternate list but it looks like he has just missed out and obviously didn't have time to get there for qualifying QR1: Sean Thornley UNR v Tristan Tringali (AUS) UNR I assume Sean is playing doubles here but no idea who with.
