QR1: Adam Olbrich UNR v Tomas Zeman CZE UNR Olbrich is 0-7 in futures qualies so not expecting a lot. Illingworth, Feaver, Milton & Rice are all in the main draw. -- Edited by wolf at 00:01, 2008-08-30
Thoughts on the general action so far ? Another big shock in the womens draw last night, many people's pick for the title on here Kuznetsova crashing out in 3 sets to Srebotnik 6-3, 6-7, 6-3. Wasn't a great match, Srebotnik got very tight at the end of the 2nd, didn't think she'd make it. She was very aggre...

Incidently, I have seen Josh play a few times and would have questioned h...
The head-to-head is 3-3. All of Andy's victories have been achieved this year. Can he make it four on the trot? If the Andy who played the final three sets of today's match against Melzer turns up ( ), then undoubtedly yes, but if not, forget it...

Wolf got in with the week 36 Futures qualifying threads just as I was about to start (definitely not complaining there ) but I imagine he hasn't even bothered to check the Argentine Future - I'm not sure why I did, but this is what I found: QR1: (qWC) Luis Moreno UNR v Lucas Tocci (ARG) UNR
