Q1: WEBLEY-SMITH, Emily (GBR) 385 v PASZEK, Tamira 4 108 (CH=26 Feb 2013, H2H 0-1 in 2 sets 2014 Birmingham)-- Edited by Peter too on Friday 25th of July 2014 11:36:45 PM
There's not quite the depth of the men but are quite a lot of our top (or nearly top) players taking part - and the prize pot for the final places is so much bigger than a 10k Futures - that it seems (to me) that this should have its own thread even though there's a general B Tour one (hope others agree): R1: Ta...
I've not started one of these threads before but I'm gonna give it a go, just because I can! Wardy is seeded to get through qualifying much to my surprise. Dan S potentially has a good draw, Evo has a tough first match but no reason why he can't qualify again if he's a bit fitter. Dan C has a bit of a stinker tho...

Does anyone keep a record of players records of wins against top 300 ranked players? I'm interested as a guideline to see which of the 200 - 500 ranked players have had most success and could use as a guideline to judge potential to climb higher. I know Helen Parish has a career best scalp list, but it's on...
QR1: Remi Highton UNR v Gerard Andrés Rodríguez (ESP) UNR (16yo) QR2: (q5) Bruce Strachan WR 1241 v Antun Pehar (CRO) WR 2202 (CH 1614 in 2011) or Petr Lukas (CZE) UNR (first Futures event) QR2: Highton or Rodríguez v (q7) Tomislav Draganja (CRO) WR 1374 (CH 1338 in May) Remi is making his Futures (quali...
Colin's trying his hand at singles again. Wonder who his partner will be in the doubles... QR1: Sekou Bangoura (USA) WR 535 vs Colin Fleming UNR Needless to say, they've never met, but if he gets through that (KO 15.00 BST), he'll have to play his QR2 against the q4, Damir Dzumhur (WR 117), later in the...
JoKo won the title here last year but this event has moved back a few weeks in the calendar. Katie Boulter should be seeded in the main draw this year and Izzy is in qualifying despite being listed as a withdrawal on the acceptance list on ITF, which is why she needed the QWC in order to play: FQR: (q4/wc) Is...
There's a big contingent of boys who, arguably, 'should' be playing the UK nationals, currently here in Slovenia. But without much success . . . R1: Max STEWART (GBR) [6] BYE Sebastien BUTLER (GBR) [12] BYE Marcus WALTERS (GBR) [2] BYE Josh PISTORIUS (GBR) 6-4 5-7 6-3 Karlo BOLJA...

A tricky draw for Naomi: QR1: Naomi Broady WR 146 v (wc) Tornado Alicia Black (USA) WR 566 (= CH; 16yo junior WR 4; USO junior finalist last year) Seeds in section: (q27) Kudryavtseva & (q4) Larcher de Brito
This annual event between the US and us Brits is being held for the 2nd time in New Haven, alongside the WTA event. Last year we were comfortably beaten in Eastbourne, following a shock victory when we played here in New Haven. GB has fielded a very strong team, whereas sadly the US are fielding a shockin...
Love this site, just found it. Read some comments regarding Enrique Vidal. He has had to do it the hard way and is an example like many others who don't have money or funding to chase expensive Itfs and will come through later .There are many many boys especially , who have not even done Itfs and will go str...
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...
