Four Brits try their luck in a weak Grade 2. Callum Poland-Smith has a tough match against the winner of the recent Moldovan Grade 2 R1 (L32) (1) Arjun Kadhe (IND) v Toby Mitchell (GBR) Samuel Sutton (GBR) v Konstantinos Ilia (CYP) Callum Poland-Smith (GBR) v (4) Yuriy Kryvoy (UKR) (WC) Pavel Tsoy (UZ...
One of Fitzy's old doubles partners (in Kashiwa last year) Gregory Howe is trying to win a Futures match is his 40s (he turned 40 in November) today against a player less than half his age. He is in a qualifying section which has no ranked players in it but it could be tough because Song has won a lot of mat...
Both Brits have drawn seeds in R1: L32: Alex Bogdanovic WR 343 v (6) Maxime Authom (BEL) WR 212 (CH 198 last month) L32: Alex Ward WR 348 v (8) Stéphane Bohli (SUI) WR 221 (CH 113 in 2010) Authom was the player who beat James Ward 1 & 2 in Indian Wells Q. Bohli is on a 6-match losing streak which started wit...
Last chance for the trio in South-East Asia to make an impression R1 (L64) (7) Sam Hutt (GBR) Bye Joshua Page (GBR) v Nattan Benjasupawan (THA) (12) Jordan Angus (GBR) Bye
Harriet Dart has been more impressive of late on the Pro Circuit than in Juniors, but she has surprisingly come to Croatia for a Grade 1 on clay. The Belgian top seed Elise Mertens is a likely second round opponent. R1 (L64) Harriet Dart (GBR) v (Q) Rebeka Stolmar (HUN)
QR1: James Ward WR 163 v (q24) Andrey Golubev (KAZ) WR 145 Not the kindest draw, given that Golubev was ranked 33 in 2010 and despite having a lean year last year, partly due to injuries (he had to retire here last year- illness) drawing Rafa in R1 of the USO, etc, he has managed to qualify and reach R2 of th...
hi im new here and recently read an article about a competition between scotland and england called the aberdeen cup. It seems to have only been played twice with scotand winning both times (yay) and i was wandering what had happened to it. It seems like a great idea. Was it cancelled due to lack of inter...
Liechtenstein. 2 rounds of qualifying QR1: (q16) Harry David Meehan WR 1879 v Jessy Kalambay (SUI) UNR If he wins he will probably play the big serving German Robin Kern in the FQR.
Andy has a bye in the first round, first match second round Garcia-Lopez or Machado: then probably Troicki or Ryan Harrison. 4R seeds in his section Simon or Wawrinka, quarter against Fish (if they both get there). In Djokovic's half again.
Hev and Laura may well be seeded in the main draw here so to coin/mangle a phrase, let's hope for deep runs in Clearwater! () QR1: (q6) Naomi Broady WR 192 v Nastja Kolar (SLO) WR 275 (CH 232 last Aug) Kolar is 17 and is concentrating on senior events now but was junior world no. 4 in May 2010. The winner will p...
Both Brits are in the bottom quarter of the draw: L32: Jamie Baker WR 247 v Philipp Oswald (AUT) WR 256 L32: Josh Goodall WR 264 v Fabrice Martin (FRA) WR 286 (H2H 0-1, 6-4 7-6(4) Cherbourg 2010) The winner of Jamie's match is likely to play 5th seed Dustin Brown (GER) WR 177 in R2, while the winner of Josh's...

R1: (WC) Adham El-Effendi (USA) & Darren Walsh vs Lukas Lacko & Lukas Rosol (SVK/CZE) A tough draw for the boys, & if they get past the Slovak-Czech combo, they'll in all probability face the top seeds, Santiago González & Scott Lipsky (MEX/USA)!

Dan Smethurst should be one of the top seeds in the main draw, James Marsalek is also a DA here and Matthew Short was 1st on the Alt list, so looks to have got in too.
