Phillips has gotten a rotter of a draw... Attila BALAZS (HUN) (1) Vs Morgan PHILLIPS (GBR) Not only is Balazs the top seed but he is also ranked at a Challenger-level WR159. But I suppose it is another good 'yard-stick' opportunity for Phillips and althoguh Balazs does have a lofty ranking the founda...
4 GB girls on the entry list for this extremely weak Grade A event. Pippa makes #39 on the entry list without ever playing an event stronger than Grade 4. If she can maintain her form of beating three girls circa 100 in the rankings at the British Nationals, there are only 4 top 50 players here and the last...
Evo, Goodall, Cox, Milton, Slabba & Feaver are DAs here, it looks like Morgan, Priddle and Gabb sneaked in too, though possibly one of them got Morgan's WC. Martin, el Menshawy and Farquharson have WCs too. All GB and/or unranked unless otherwise stated: QR1: Sizya Ernest Kivanda v Jack Paterso...
L32: Jamie Baker WR 297 v (WC) Steve Johnson (USA) WR 798 A nice R1 draw from Jamie, but if he gets through that, it will be (7) Kevin Kim WR 176 or Amer Delic in R2 with (1) Donald Young WR 111 the other seed in that quarter of the draw.

With Wardy having pulled out, Philip Barlow is flying the flag in Kuwait this week: L32: Philip Barlow WR 1243 v (WC) Mohammed Abdal (KUW) UNR Abdal is a 16-y-o whose first Futures event was Meshref last week - he won by retirement in QR1 then lost in 3 sets to a 15-y-o fellow Kuwaiti who got mashed 1 & 3...
L32: Andrew Fitzpatrick WR 1095 v (5) Karan Rastogi (IND) WR 447 Not the best draw Fitzy could have hoped for. Rastogi actually played Roehampton a couple of months ago, beating Edward Corrie 6 & 4 then later losing & 5 to Josh Milton in the semis. He also has a 2-0 record against Jamie Delgado b...
QR1: (q7) Dominic Inglot WR 597 v (wc) Ji-Hoon Sun (KOR) UNR Dom was drawn in top seed (WR 329) Rameez Junaid's section but the Aussie appears to have pulled out just after the draw, leaving BBD, a Korean ranked 1524 and a bunch of unranked Korean WCs! But ... doh! why can't one of our singles specialists...
