L32: (4) Alex Slabinsky WR 541 v (WC) Abdelhak Hameurlaine (ALG) WR 1566 (CH 963 in 2003) Hameurlaine is 40 years old but has managed to reach R2 in the last 2 weeks' Algerian Futures so has re-entered the rankings (as Algeria's no. 3!) today. He is Algeria's most successful Davis Cup singles player ev...
Chris Eaton hasn't played for three months and missed a lot of British tournaments where he has played in previous years. Has he announced his retirement? Is he injured? I can't find anything on the internet but this forum has lots of people who seem to know things that many others don't!
A quartet of Brits here with coach Luke Milligan for the Grade 2 and Grade A, with Katy Dunne looking to break into the top 50. Katy, Katie Boulter and Harriet Dart are all seeded and will take on Japanese opposition in round 2, but Anna Brogan has a tough draw with second seed Karin Kennel, who has trounce...

L32: (5) Alex Slabinsky WR v (WC) Sid Ali Akili (ALG) WR 1564 (CH 1498 in Feb) So is this a young, up-and-coming Algerian Slabba has drawn? Er, not exactly - Akili is 38 He did have a 4-1 record in Davis Cup last year though. He got his ranking point by double-bagelling another Algerian whose only other...

The French Open winner has already got a number of competitions named after him. This one was to feature Jazzi Plews, but as I surmised in another thread she has withdrawn, leaving Lana Rush to try and secure a British win for the third week running. The draw hasn't helped her cause, as first up will prob...

This is the warm-up for the Osaka Grade A next week, and Alex Sendegeya could overtake Peter Ashley as our top 1996 with good performances in the two events. Evan Hoyt should join next week providing he doesn't get detained for too long at the Glasgow Futures R1 (L64) Tom Hill (GBR) v (WC) Makoto Ochi (JP...
Best I can figure, after several withdrawals, Laura is guaranteed to be seeded here - she probably would have earned a seeding anyway, but now it seems certain. I've looked back through Laura's career, and don't believe she's ever been seeded in a WTA event before, unless somebody knows better? Als...
The BBC have announced they are cutting back the red button video to a single stream on all platforms from this week, so that probably means even less chance of seeing your favourite players at Wimbledon. Must have blown their budget on the Olympics.
