QR1: Orion Modebe UNR v Jakub Jastrzebski (POL) UNR We will have James, Edward and Miles in the main draw here, but I was half expecting to see the likes of Bammy in qualifying here.

To all our surprise Andy made light work of DT to go 4-0 in the H2H. I wonder how better Tim could have done if he had managed to have the game to best the Russian ? Anyway....much tougher prospect now. Simon beat Andy is 3 sets in Rome last year in one of those strange scorelines 6-1 1-6 6-3. Simon is 13/11 for...

The Count has suggested that despite the disappearance of the card I sent from some of us to Castelldefells for a certain Mr Dee, maybe we should try again by sending one to Jamie. (Lest anyone thinks we're going as soft as AM.com here and are going to start sending group cards at the drop of a hat, I'm en...

Yes , Andy has made it - he is to be featured on 'Head Cases' by a puppet on ITV 1 this Sunday at 10.00pm. Having just seen the ad on ITV it looks quite funny although I'm not sure Andy will think so, but hey to appear alongside princes Harry and Wills cant be bad.
