A second match in a row against a no. 3 seed for Oli - tough draw: L32: Oli Golding WR 515 v (3) Sandro Ehrat (SUI) WR 297 (= CH) Ehrat has won 8 of his last 9 matches (3 in qualifying for the Rome Challenger, lost in R1 to GGL, 5 to win Italy F5)
This still feels more than a bit odd, but since it appears he definitely is GBR now and that has always been the main determinant of whether a player's matches get listed on here, I guess this tournament needs a thread. L32: Brydan Klein WR 241 v Ruben Bemelmans (BEL) WR 141 (CH 108 in 2012) H2H 0-1, 7-6(3)...

In 2008 two juniors with connections to Britain and Australia (Jo Konta and Laura Robson) contested the final here. Isabelle Wallace tries to follow suit, but will probably have to find a way past top junior Belinda Bencic in her second match. R1 (L64) (15) Isabelle Wallace (GBR) bye
We have a quartet here for the second Austrian Grade 2. The three boys have all avoided seeds, but are likely to meet top 4 seeds in round 2. Anna Brogan could meet one of the few Aussie-Brit defectors in the other direction (Naiktha Bains) in round 2 Boys R1 (L32) Viktor Kostin (GER) v Robbie Ridout (GBR)...

QR1: Darren Walsh WR 1671 v Timur Goryunov (UZB) UNR A ridiculously weak qualifying draw for a Challenger (apart from a late entrant top seed) - Darren plays one of quite a few players on the draw who have never even played Futures qualifying before as far as I can tell and the two seeded players in his sec...
I have posted in a couple of other threads about some of my experiences in Madrid, but there is one more I wanted to share. It doesn't relate to any GB players so I thought here was the most appropriate place. Much as I enjoyed being on the centre court with Nole, Muzza, Rafa et al, I also enjoyed wandering...

The two highest-ranked Brits here meet in R1 (and are in top seed Babos's quarter), which is a pity, but given Jade's draw and the points on offer, we can't have too many complaints overall: L32: (7) Samantha Murray WR 254 v Emily Webley-Smith WR 436 (H2H 1-1 but both way back in 2006, 1 a ret.)
