When I first came to this forum, there was a bucket load of people willing to write articles for the site, Rob posted a list every day, and people seemed to respond. I reckon for the last three months though, I have done about 96-97% of the articles. Is there anyone out there who would like to help out? Quit...
Is Andy going to show up ? If so any guesses as to which day ? Tim Edit - it didn't seem worth while opening a separate thread for this tournament, so I have "pinched" Tim's thread and altered the title. Hope you don't mind, Tim! -- Edited by timmoore46 on Sunday 14th of March 2010 08:12:04 AM
Evo and Yoshi are likely to be seeded here in a draw that is significantly stronger than the one in Tipton, with Sijsling and Jan Minar slotting in above Bautista-Agut and serial Brit-basher Freddie Nielsen making an appearance and Samuel Groth looking to add to his 14-match Brit-bashing streak as w...
The last chance for the girls to earn significant points in South America, and at least they have avoided top 100 players in round 1 R1 (L64) Jessica Pegula (USA) v Lucy Brown (GBR) Daneika Borthwick (GBR) v Denisa Allertova (CZE) Kerrie Cartwright (BAH) v Elisha Gabb (GBR)
Another good week for Jennifer Ren here would see her enter the top 100 for the first time. She shouldn't be troubled until the quarter-finals. Boys R1 (L32) (WC) Matthew Rossouw (RSA) v (6) Christopher Simpson (GBR) Girls R1 (L32) Francesca Stephenson (GBR) v (7) Ysaline Bonaventure (BEL) Joanna H...
David Rice (8) GBR WR 509 vs Jordan Cox (LL) USA WR 940 Another nice first-round draw for David, with his R1 opponent from last week, Gilad Ben Zvi (who he beat easily), or Canadian WC Erik Chvojka in the last 16. He's in the same quarter as top seed Vasek Pospisil again, but Pospisil got beat by Inzerillo l...
Anne is in the main draw with her SR, Elena just missed out and Katie was down to play qualifying but is not in the Q draw: QR1: (q1) Elena Baltacha WR 64 v (WC) Julia Boserup (USA) WR Boserup beat Mel South 2-6 6-3 6-0 in Surprise last month and Jade Curtis 1 & 3 in Plantation in January, though neither of...
L32: Alex Slabinsky WR 735 v Dzmitry Zhyrmont (BLR) WR 689 - Tuesday Zhyrmont is 0-4 against Brits in singles, having lost to both Seator and Eaton in 2007 and to both Thornley (3 & 3) and Dr No (bagel in the 3rd) in November 2009. The winner is likely to play (6) Ilya Belyaev (RUS) WR 404 in R2.
Luke Bambridge plays his first ITF tournament of the year, thanks to a wildcard for qualifying, and he has negotiated that and the first round of the main draw R1 (L64) (Q) Luke Bambridge (GBR) d. Martin Lacko (SVK) 6-3 6-1 (9) James Ireland (GBR) Bye R2 (Q) Luke Bambridge (GBR) v (5) Pedja Krstin (SRB) S...
Jack Carpenter's chances of making an impact in the third Grade A event of the year have been dealt a blow by drawing the top seed and Australian Open champion Tiago Fernandes. George Morgan's draw (for the opening 2 rounds at least) is more favourable. R1 (L64) (1) Tiago Fernandes (BRA) v Jack Carpent...
QL128: Kyung-Yee CHAE (KOR) 4 v. Angela ROSSLER (SWE) Catriona STEWART (GBR) v. Kateryna KOZLOVA (UKR) Jessica HUMBERT (AUS) v. Ani AMIRAGHYAN (ARM) Monica CANTELE (ITA) v. Laura ANTONANA-IRIARTE (ESP) Anna MOMOT (UKR) v. Huliya VELIEVA (BUL) Deborah DANZ (GER) v. Romana TABAKOV...
I've just noticed that on Tuesday (16 March 2010), we reached 1000 signed up members - Diane, ABBA and TimProper signed up that day, and I think they are probably shown in order on the calendar, so Tim was the 1000th. maddog signed up on Wednesday to start the next 1000 ...
This sounds like a tournament my avatar should be pkaying in - the "King Rabbit Cup" LOL QR2: (q4) Myles Blake WR 1150 v Li Jia (CHN) UNR or Evan Meltzer (USA) UNR
I'm sure this might belong the Turkey DC thread, but I really do feel the need to create a seperate thread for this. With a new captain now at the helm, he HAS to make the decision to bring back the second best player in the country. Alex has won NINE challenger titles, that is seven more than any of the other...
We've drawn Lithuania away - the only players they have in the top 1000 in singles are Ricardas Berankis WR 432, Laurynas Grigelis WR 642 and Gvidas Sabeckis WR 672 and they don't have anyone inside the top 1000 in doubles, so this is one we had better be able to win without Andy! If we do win, we'll play t...
I believe we may see the reappearance of Katie here after a long break by her standards. Hopefully trying to gain confidence before playing qualis of Miami the week after. The strength of the field given the players world rankings seems ridiculous for such a low grade of tournament so Katie will have t...
QR1: Nick Cavaday WR 1287 v Jannis Liniger (SUI) UNR QR1: Robert Dee UNR v Juan Pablo de Paiz Ferrer (ESP) UNR QR1: Sam Jeffery UNR v Goncalo Falcao (POR) WR 1289 QR1: Charlie Goode UNR v Johannes Schullern (AUT) UNR QR1: Nikki Roenn UNR v Diego Lopez (ESP) UNR QR1: Matthew Short UNR v Roque Rocha (POR) UNR...
One of the competitors for longest (and most pretentious) titled junior tournaments sees both our girls do battle with finalists from last week's Grade 4 event in Brunei. If successful they both have tough assignments in round 2 against the top seed (Khromacheva) and number 3 seed (Saisai Zheng) Bo...
