Darren & Adham make the trek all the way to Uzbekistan only to draw arguably the most dangerous pair of "floaters" in the draw in the first round: R1: Mikhail Elgin & Alexander Kudryavtsev (RUS/RUS) WR 677 vs Adham El-Effendi (USA) & Darren Walsh WR 646 Edited to reflect toda...
L32: (7) Kyle Edmund WR 510 v (LL) Janis Podzus (LAT) UNR A decent draw for Kyle. If the seedings run their course. Kyle will face his old buddy (and Nº1 seed) Chase Buchanan in the QF. But let's not count our chickens just yet. It would be good just to see Kyle hit some form.
A bit of a change from this week - the Brits are all in different quarters of the draw! Will that work out better or worse, I wonder ...

The all conquering Nicola Slater continues in the States, taking pity on one of her victims in last weeks final (and last weeks singles champion) to partner with her this week. They have, however, drawn the #2 seeds; a team that comprises two of the strongest players in the singles field. R1: Nicola S...

The traditional warm-up tournament in Bolton produced only modest success for the British girls, with Anastasia Mikheeva winning the consolation event, after an early exit from the main draw. Katie Swan,...

It's been a strange 2013 for Laura and Heather. The good news is that they have both achieved career high rankings inside the top 40 (with a 3 at the beginning too!). However their form and results have been rather poor. In the case of Heather this looks to be chiefly related to her glandular fever, and wi...
