QR1: Morgan Phillips WR 411 v Mohammed Affes (TUN) UNR Winner to play (q5) Boris Pashanski (SRB) WR 323, who has fallen a long way since getting beaten by Eaton at Wimby but is on his favoured surface here. The other seed in this section is another one who has been beaten by a Brit well outside the top 250, B...
I was playing last night and something bizarre happened: my partner span his racket "rough or smooth?" only for it to land edge on! Has anyone else had that happen or heard of it it happening? I just wish it was on video, we'd make a fortune on Utube.... Steve

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...
