This is the only Future that has Brits as DAs next week and for a change, the LTA has managed to post the main draw WCs in advance.. They are: - Dr No - the Wardinator - Brassington - Coupland - Pauffley as reserve (if Rice ends up as a DA, I assume)
A very thin week for Junior ITF events, with the main focus being on the European Summer Cup qualifications at the end of the week.

Jamie D & Jamie M are having another go together, at this event! They are unseeded and their first-round opponents are the Argentine pair of Brian Dabul & Sergio Roitman. Will they get a win?
QR1: (q3) Dan Cox WR 478 v (WC) Sergey Sukhov (RUS) UNR A seeding in qualifying was the best Dan could realistically hope for when he entered, and he's got a very reasonable draw here, with (5) Artur Chernov (RUS) WR 599 the highest-ranked player standing in the way of a place in the main draw. Good luck!...
H&H are seeded 4th here with the field being stronger than the one last week in Indianapolis. In the first round they face Yen-Hsun Lu & Dusan Vemic (TPE/SRB).
Goodall will turn up here on his own of course after James pulled out. He turns out seeded 5th at the event but is in the same quarter as the 2nd seed Zeballos (an argentine clay courter). In the first round Goody faces Rogerio Dutra Da Silva (pauses for breath), a brazilian ranked 231. The brazilian has...
We were having a small discussion in the Lexy thread, so I thought we'd have a thread to track the progress (till the end of 2009) of all players born in 1989 and later. I want this thread here and not in the General section just because it involves Evans in a major way. Do players actually care about being t...
Sarah has turned up in the doubles with another different partner. L16: BORWELL/ANDERSEN, Kelly (RSA) v DOMACHOWSKA/GRANDIN (POL/RSA) they could meet the czech 3rd seeds of hradecka/voracova in the quarters.
