Amanda Elliott continues to try to qualify for strong clay court challengers. Her opening opponent has had some success in similar qualifying tournaments, and reached the quarter-final of a main draw $100K event, so should provide strong opposition. Her match is second on court 2 (the first start...
Anne Keothavong returns to action following her successful US Open in this Tier 1 tournament. In previous years Anne would have expected to have been in a moderate standard qualifying tournament, as the timing immediately after the Australian Open did not attract many top players. The change of sc...

I talked to Bakerboy yesterday and he will not be playing in the Waco Challenger. Said he needs a break and is heading back home to Scotland. A lot of players he said were up in the air about whether to play in Waco because of the Hurricane and the potential of calling the tournament off. Sorry I couldn't co...

If you would like a copy of any of the matches below, just send a PM and let me know which match you would like. Although I've been recording matches since the indoor masters at the end of last year, I've only just begun to organise a catalogued collection. Previously, the only copy I kept was a file on my ex...
One of the most weirdest doubles pairings ever seen in a futures event here. Faris Akhazzan somehow managed to persuade the former top 100 singles player Danai Udomchoke (now ranked 155) to play with him. Even with such a illustrious partner they still lost first round though. Also the Ratiwatana tw...

Anyone feel really strange when looking at the new rankings? It was so strange to not see Tim's name, ranking etc. I know he has not played for the last year, but every time the rankings have been updated I have looked to see where he is....wow.... Thanks for the memories Tim, now hopefully Andy can get...

Ross Hutchins plays with Jim Thomas, whom he won the Segovia challenger with last month, and they are the 4th seeds!! They have drawn Jeremy Chardy and Teimuraz Gabashvili in R1.
I reckon we should put on a big music festival for Andy Murray - if this were the English Football team, or an olympic champion - there would be parades in the street and a big carnival, and a national holiday... So here I am hoping to persuade y'all that we should put on a day of music to celebrate Andy's Fin...
