Jamie Murray teams up with Max Mirnyi are the 12th seeds. They first play Rik De Voest and Robin Haase. Ross Hutchins plays with Stephen Huss. They have a tough draw against the 4th seeds Mark Knowles and Mahesh Bhupathi.

QR1: Morgan Phillips WR 1737 v (q8) Evgeniy Kirillov (RUS) WR 374 Nice to see Morgan aiming high but with this draw he's probably wishing he entered the weak Italian Future instead.

From this year (or at least this year), the 18s will be played at the NTC, in Roehampton. I don't know about the surface - can anyone with inside info/better grasp over the LTA site tell me? The 16s, 14s and 12s will be played at Bournemouth as before.
In the junior events, Britain's original representation of six in fact turned out to be seven, sort of, with one of them playing under the Australian flag against her wishes. Johanna Konta, born in Sydney to Hungarian parents, is soon to be given British citizenship having just turned 17 . When that h...
Just registered today after being directed here by Steven for the best Surbiton updates. My favourite player is Lleyton Hewitt followed, in no particular order, by Rafael Nadal, Andy Roddick, Peter Luczak, Fernando Gonzalez and many others (Murray bro's and Jamie Baker are probably on the list )....
Hey Brits, I'm new to the board. I'm a loud yank, no? Nice board here. I found it because of the cool battle of the boards AO challenge thingie. Anyway, I'm saying "word up mo-to-the-fos", Tennisopolis is going to bust it up in the challenge. That's it for now. c ya wdnt wannnnnna b ya. fb

QR1: Oscar Podlewski UNR beat Kacper Rams (POL) UNR by 1 & 1 QR2: Oscar Podlewski UNR v (q2) Marek Mokrzycki (POL) WR 1579 There are only three ranked players in qualifying here!
Newport is a smaller draw this year (because of the Olympics I think) but even so, the initial entry lists are not that different. I know many think the status of Surbiton should be raised but, why offer more prize money when it draws a field this strong anyway.....its unlikely to atract any better pl...
So, can Andy maintain the sublime form he showed today against Acasuso in the third round? Let's hope so! This will be their first meeting, whenever it is (Friday?) ...

If Andy doesn't do something to up his game against Acasuso compared with his performance in his match against Eysseric today, then I fear the worst on Tuesday...!
