QR2: (q2) Laura Robson WR 315 v Jacqueline Cako (USA) WR 493 or Megan Falcon (USA) UNR The other seed in Laura's section is (q8) Chin-Wei Chan (TPE) WR 481. -- Edited by steven on Sunday 18th of April 2010 12:03:12 AM
Its a critical week for many of our boys trying to make Roland Garros. Oliver Golding and George Morgan should have enough points for the main draw, whilst Jack Carpenter (and Tom Allen, playing in Spain) should have enough for qualifying, but needs at least a QF to be in with a chance of a main draw entry...
Its the final opportunity for our quartet in France to make an impression in singles. Lucy Brown is seeded, but would probably need to beat strong local hope Caroline Garcia in order to reach the quarter-finals and gain points. Garcia is ranked just outside 600 WTA and has won a Grade 1 junior event thi...
That's a break with tradition if so.. The man are playing Frinton but it's only a $10K and looks like Manchester replaces Felixstowe. The Ladies don't seem to have any grass events after Wimbledon but have a $25K in Woking and Wrexham?
Q1: WEBLEY-SMITH, Emily (GBR) 474 v ORLIK, Anna (BLR) 601More hot milky drinks before bed for Emily. She beat Orlik last week so hopefully should be able to repeat the result.
Slabba should be in the main draw here. The QD is half-empty. QR1: Monti Smythers UNR v Alexandru Grigorita (ROU) UNR - the winner will play (q3) Andraz Bedene (SLO) WR 981 in the FQR
Boggo is up this week for playing in Athens and has been rewarded with a nightmare of a draw. He plays 2nd seed and World Number 49 Phillip Petzschner in the 1st round. Petzschner has been in good form reaching the last 16 of Monte Carlo knocking out Melzer and Garcia Lopez before falling to Andy's conque...
Dan Smethurst should be seeded here. QR2: (q9) Neil Pauffley WR 688 v Lorenz Ilg (GER) WR 1336 or Raphael Lustenberger (SUI) WR 1654 - the other seed in this section is (q3) Diego Alvarez (ARG) WR 481 QR2: (q8) Alex Ward WR 599 v Claudio Scatissi (ITA) UNR or Martin Rmus (SLO) WR 1057 - the other seed in this...
Tom Allen needs to win the title here, in a weak Grade 2, to have a realistic chance of making Roland Garros by direct entry. R1 (L32) (Q) Laureano Agullo Juan (ESP) v (LL) James Hignett (GBR) (LL) Jose Fco. Vidal Azorin (ESP) v (2) Tom Allen (GBR)
So one of my "recommendations for you" on my Youtube account today saw a tennis results show from Australia featuring one reasonably good presenter and one who was... er... a bit rubbish and I thought to myself: "that's not a bad idea" - figured it could be a nice idea to coincide...
Luke Bambridge's quest to improve on last week's semifinal should be tested early on in a quarter that includes top seed Robert Carter, Alexandre Favrot and Toby Martin. He opens against 6th seed Ciaran Fitzgerald, and if he survives from his quarter then another match against Dimitri Bretting is...
Can anyone direct me towards the actual entry list for this? I mean the pdf file where it lists direct entry and then a long list of Alternates underneath? Because the MC website is only listing the DA entrants, and even MTF only gives the first 15 Alternates (which tells me the entry sheet must be out the...
Dr No is likely to be seeded in the main draw here but oddly the two Brits who are doing well in Madrid this week are not down to play here - Meatball withdrew on 3 April and Morgan Phillips didn't enter in the first place. I wonder if one or both of them are intending to try to qualify for the Rome Challenger....
QR1: Josh Milton WR 539 v (q6) Sebastian Rieschick (GER) WR 423 Wardy, Evo, Baker and Josh were all on the alts list here (1, 3, 6 & 10 respectively) and the top seed in qualifying was the 13th alt for the MD, so I guess it's just about possible that they all scraped in -- Edited by steven on Saturday 10t...
Oliver Golding returns to Junior action for the first time since the Australian Open, and may wish he hadn't bothered, as his first task is to subdue the resurgent Carlos Boluda-Purkiss. Tom Allen draws the top seed for the second week running, whilst Andrew Bettles enters the draw courtesy of an exe...
QR1: KONOV, Simon (GBR) UNR v MOLINA, Emanuele (ITA) 1279 QR1: PAUFFLEY, Neil (GBR) 3 686 v Bye -- Edited by steven on Saturday 10th of April 2010 09:13:45 AM
