Hi All I've been reading your posts for many years. I moved to Aus a few years ago and miss the 'live chats' that go on here. They are the first thing I read when I wake up in Melbourne. I just wanted to say a big big thanks to all of the people so invested in the highs and lows of British tennis who post on here. I...

I assume this is a 10K as per the ITF site as the LTA site has it as a 15K Qualifying drawsheet is now out and a surprise entrant at top seed in Lewis Burton. Evan Hoyt surprisingly didn't make the main draw and is qualifying. Lots of new GB names to me in the qualifying. Tempted to go down and watch Lewis and E...

In 'the best of the rest', bravo to Youssef Hassan (6) at the G5 Amman Int. event in Jordan, for beating the number 4 seed in the quarters and only losing 7-5 in the third set in the semis. Very close. Peter O'Donovan also played and came through one round before losing but the two boys have made the doubles...

Heather WATSON (GBR) / Vera Dushevina (RUS) v Sandra KLEMENSCHITS (AUT) / Andreja KLEPAC (SLO) I don't know anything about Heather's opponents so I'll assume it's a decent draw. Laura understandably not playing doubles - Lisa Raymond is partnering Polona Hercog
