James Ward is a DA here and is looking to snap a 7-match losing streak (excluding DC) at the event he won as a qualifier two years ago. He isn't defending any points because he went out to Estrella in R1 last year. Qualifying has plenty of unranked players in it, including a 14-year-old Brit playing his fi...

Our top 94/95s are out in force for the climax on the Riviera, with Kyle Edmund and Luke Bambridge joining Liam and Katy. Appropriately for Easter week Kyle is in a religious section of the draw, with Constantin Christ a possible opponent in round 2, and Gonzalo Lama (who he lost to in Paraguay) the firs...

Cox and Slabba were meant to be on the qualifying list here but Slabba can't have made it to sign-in because he was playing in Madrid today and Dan has tweeted that he is off to Mexico next week, perhaps for altitude training (in which case Evo will be GB no 3 on Monday week), since there are neither Challe...

A player ranked in the...
