Before I start I do not want to cause any offence or target Webley-Smith (She is the case study for my question here more than anything!). I enjoy following tennis reasonably closely but I wanted to come on here to find out a little bit more and get some questions answered. Webley-Smith started playing...
The Universiade (aka World University Games) is currently taking place in Kazan. I've put this in the women's section because Anna Fitzpatrick is the Brit making the most progress. Men's singles L64: Scott Whitbread UNR lost to Eric Johnson (USA) UNR by 4 & 4 L64: Chris Simpson UNR beat Angar...
Anyone who saw Joshua Sapwell's Wimbledon interview will have picked up that his schedule for the next few weeks starts here, and he is top seed followed by Lewis Roskilly, Ben Stride and Jay Clarke. Under 14 star Max Stewart is a possible second round opponent for Josh. http://www.lta.org.uk/NewW...
Goodall, Pauffley, Cox, Willis, Gabb, Farquharson, Ward-Hibbert, Broady, Coupland, Orton, Ireland, Hudson, O'Mara and Aswat should all be in the main draw. Probable wild cards for Malik, Goodman and Salisbury, possibly also Carter who wasn't on the acceptance list Qualifying draw has just 7 ra...
I was quite surprised when I checked the qualifying draws of the the two clay court challengers in Europe and didn't see Smetty and Wardy on them. I was pleased to find out that there was a very good reason for that. QR1: Daniel Smethurst WR 395 v (q8) Damir Dzumhur (BIH) WR 264 QR1: Alex Ward WR 396 v Sandro...

Thibault Saive (BEL) 6-2 6-3 (8) Andrew Watson (GBR) d. (WC) Tom Jottrand (BEL) 6-1 7-6(4) R3 (6) Joel Cannell (GBR) d....
Have to set the ball rolling, so to speak.... L128: Benjamin Becker (GER) WR 95 vs (2) Andy Murray WR 2 Head-to-head: they've met only once, at Queen's last week, when Andy triumphed by 6-4 7-6(3). I'm already assuming that Andy is on his way to a third encounter in the L64 with Yen-Hsun Lu (H2H 1-1......
anyone else looking forward to the sporting action this sumer? Inparticular looking forward to beating the Aussies with the Lions rugby tour and then the ashes? Also the small matter of our man winning wimbledon!
L32: (8) Oli Golding WR 529 v (Q) Franck Pepe (FRA) WR 876 (CH 612 in 2012) Pepe won a Futures title in Germany on indoor hard last year and reached a Futures SF in Germany on clay as a qualifier as recently as last month.
R1: Nicola Slater & Maria Kondratieva (GBR/RUS) 489 vs. Vera Dushevina & Ana Vrljic (RUS/CRO) 254 [2] I'd have liked to see Tara here in the singles rather than the Turkish $25K.
This is the top grade event this week, and Alex Sendegeya, Harriet Dart plus Isabelle Wallace are here in preparation for the European Championships in 2 weeks time. Although Alannah Griffin lost in qualifying, there was success for Mirabelle Njoze and Emily Smith, who join the main draw Boys R1 (L6...
Just so they aren't buried in the singles main draw thread: R1: (1) Sara Errani & Roberta Vinci (ITA/ITA) WR 1 vs (WC) Anne Keothavong & Johanna Konta WR 626 - no chance! R1: (WC) Nicola Slater & Lisa Whybourn WR 687 vs Alizé Cornet & Pauline Parmentier (FRA/FRA) WR 316 R1: Flavia Pe...
Where is she? I remember she made the 3rd round of Wimbledon juniors a few years back, and seemed to be progressing through the women's rankings.... But I haven't heard anything about her in a while.
