Wardy is a DA for this Challenger on green clay and the Bishop has popped up in qualifying: QR1: Paul Bishop WR 1545 v Kaes van't Hof (USA) WR 654 QR2: Bishop or van't Hof v (q8) Ricardas Berankis (LTU) WR 491
QR1: (q4) Chris Eaton WR 380 v Artem Sitak (RUS) WR 592 QR1: (q7) Jonny Marray WR 417 v Gilad Ben Zvi (ISR) WR 1871 Unfortunately, both Brits are in the same qualifying section, though perhaps that is quite fortunate in a super-Challenger like this, especially when the other four players in the secti...
Hutch & Huss are trying their luck here. They are seeded 3 and in the 1st round their opponents will be Levinsky & Scherrer (CZE/SUI). They are due to meet Nestor & Zimonjic (CAN/SRB), the top seeds, at the semi-final stage. Fingers crossed they get that far.

Having no idea how wild cards, junior exempt status works can anyone shed a light on the following questions. 1. Does a junior exempt entry count as a wild card? 2. If so how many wild cards can a 15 y/o use in a year? 3. If not how many junior exempts plus wild cards are you allowed in a year? -- Edited by philw...
Half-expected Aucks to turn up here: he has teamed up with the Brazilian, Marcio Torres, & they are the fourth seeds. They play the Italian WCs, Fabio Colangelo & Vico Uros, in the first round. Should be OK for the QFs... Unfortunately, Delgo, with the Dutchman, Jesse Huta Galung, in...
Jamie M has turned up here with Pavel Vizner in tow. I think they have partnered up once (?) before, without too much success. First-round match is against this week's conquerors of Aucks & Goody, Petzschner & Peya, who are the 3rd seeds. That'll be a good 'un to win.
Not all the Brits have 'escaped' Mexico yet, and there have been so many w/ds that there are only two qualifying rounds.

So after playing till Wednesday for nothing Shorty once again goes in search of that elusive first point in another massive draw QR1: Matthew Short UNR v (q12) Jonathan David (CAN) WR 1708 Other seed in section WR 1162 (Ty Trombetta)
Anne Keothavong is in a strong main draw here and faces further Spanish opposition in the form of last year's French Open quarter-finalist Carla Suarez Navarro. Anne did beat Carla earlier in the year on a hardcourt, but the Spaniard is considerably stronger on clay than Anne's Fes opponents, havin...

I didn't expect there to be any Brits for this week's red clay Challenger, but I'm glad I checked: QR2: Ashwin Kuppusamy v (q7) Boy Westerhof (NED) WR 343 (both had byes in QR1) 17-year-old Ashwin is just outside the top 1000 juniors and lost to Lewis Burton 2 & 2 in R1 of the Nottingham Junior G4 tourn...
