L32: Robert Carter WR 1183 v (8) Marc Abdelnour (SYR) WR 797 (CH 773 last week) James Ireland was meant to be in the main draw here too but must have withdrawn.
L32: (5) James Marsalek WR 566 v Laurent Malouli (FRA) WR 664 (CH 571 in Apr) H2H: 0-1 - Malouli beat James 2 & 4 in Doha last October. The Frenchman went out in R2 in Vigo last week but reached at least the QFs in his previous 4 Futures. In other words, not the nicest of R1 draws for a seed. -- Edited by ste...

The main, important tournaments obviously have their own thread but, having mulled it over with DavidC, we wondered if it might be a good idea to sometimes have a thread at the end of the week that just summarised the other results from the week - some don't really warrant a separate thread but are maybe...
Helen Parish is a young Brit who impressed when she first started playing ITFs last year but who then suffered a shoulder injury that is going to continue to keep her out for a while yet. She has just started blogging, and she's brilliant at it: About Helen: http://helenparish.wordpress.com/about/...
