Liam Broady, Kyle Edmund, Josh Ward-Hibbert and Luke Bambridge await tomorrow's draw. They will not be joined by Jonathan Cornish or Katy Dunne though, after today's first 2 rounds of qualifying. Katy had a better match than of late, coming within 2 points of defeating a Japanese girl who used to be i...
Dino's a DA here &, interestingly, Jamie B's the 8th alternate, behind two players (Pavol Cervanak & Stéphane Bohli) who are "not signed", whatever that may mean, while Alex Ward is 27th, but "not signed", Chris Eaton 29th (not signed) & Sean Thornley 53rd (not s...
Georgina Sellyn has ended her stint on the Latin American circuit, having cracked the top 100, but Tom Hill has rejoined it R1 (L64) (9) Tom Hill (GBR) v Andres Cabezas (ECU)
QR1: (q2) Josh Milton WR 381 v Alexander Satschko GER WR 936 (CH 259 in 2009) Inoyatov WR 524 is the other seed in Josh's section but Satschko could be more dangerous ... -- Edited by steven on Friday 27th of January 2012 08:55:07 PM

L128: (4) Andy Murray WR 4 v Ryan Harrison (USA) WR 84 (CH 66 last Aug) Harrison beat a "Ward GBR" in QR1 of both RG (James) and Wimbledon (Alex) last year but has never played Muzz before. Looking further ahead, the winner plays Malisse or Roger-Vasselin in R2 and possible later opponents co...
L128: Elena Baltacha WR 54 v Stéphanie Foretz Gacon (FRA) WR 107 (CH 62 in 2003) H2H 0-2, both in 3 sets, but back in 2008-9. Winner probably faces Clijsters in R2. L128: Anne Keothavong WR 73 v Mona Barthel (GER) WR 44 (= CH) H2H 2-1, all in late 2011 - Barthel won in Shrewsbury, Anne the last two in Linz a...
Georgina Sellyn is back on hard courts this week, but without Tom Hill. Justine De Sutter is in the opposite half of the draw, so any rematch this week will be welcome, given that it would be a final, and also entry into the top 100 R1 (L64) (10) Georgina Sellyn (GBR) Bye
The good news: Oli has avoided the seeds in R1. The bad news: He has drawn the (unseeded) winner of last week's title here. L32: Oliver Golding WR 645 v Aldin Setkic (BIH) WR 535 (CH 309 in 2010)
DAs for Goodall, Evans, Ward, Eaton, Cox, Bloomfield, Rice, Thornley and Burton. Probably also for Fitzy who was 2nd alt with 2 SEs to clear. Looks like wilds cards for Morgan, Gabb and Hudson. Qualifying draw again fails to attract a full field, this week just 42 entries. 2 Brits are certain to come th...

QR1: (q4) Ed Corrie WR 720 v Finn Meinecke (GER) WR 1731 QR1: (q5) Matt Short WR 801 v Gordon Garrett (USA) UNR Looks like Ed is playing his match here at 8:30 AM (local time) before heading back to sunrise to play the doubles f...

Boggo should be getting his 2012 season under way in the main draw here, but before that: QR1: (wc) Jonathan Brooklyn UNR v Thomas Shubert (USA) WR 1513 Jonathan has had a ranking point before, after qualifying then beating Massimo Capone (now ranked around 600) in R1 of a Futures event in Nottingha...
