Jamie Delgado teams up with Irakli Labadze, and they face the 3rd seeds Frederico Gil & Dick Norman in R1. Real match of the veterans there (minus Gil).
L32: (4) Edward Seator WR 508 v (Q) Tim van Terheijden (NED) WR 1792 van Terheiijden is an 18-year-old who has recorded his first ranking points by winning two Futures R1 matches in the last three weeks, including a win against Schoorel WR 657, which I think was probably his first win against a player i...

Dont think its filtered through yet but Amanda Carreras won the Junior Spanish Nationals which were held in Madrid last week. She has become the first Non Spanish Player to ever win this title!!! This comes on top of two consequitive ITF $10,000 Finals. http://www.tenispain.com/tenispain/tor...
A huge chance for Myles to pick up more points in a week than he has managed to amass in the first six months of the year as a whole: L32: (8) Myles Blake WR 779 v Sunday Emmanuel (NGR) WR 1314 - the winner to play the winner of a match between two unranked qualifiers for a place in the QFs.
