QR1: David Baxendine (GBR) UNR vs. Mitchell J. Polnet (USA) UNR There's only one ranked player in the Q draw, not in Baxendine's section, so decent chance for him to come through.

Luke Bambridge and Kyle Edmund play in the second European Grade 2 this week, before preparing for the Junior Davis Cup.

Oliver Golding just missed out on a seeding as one of the wildcards went to a higher ranked American, Mitchell Frank, who he will probably play in round 2.
