http://www.sportingo.com/article/1001,3737 Looks like the "9 Brits out in round 1" articles have started early this year. There was one in The Sun last week. Steven Howard basically said how generous the All England Club was to give 9 wildcards to Brits and that unless Murray is fit th...
Martin Baker was the only Brit to try his luck in qualifying in Marburg. He faced Manuel Hafemann, the unranked German in the first round and defeated him 6-0 6-3. He goes through to face another German, Julien Lorenz, who received a bye through the first round.

Updated Live Rankings now posted here now (on Britishtennis.net) Stretch starts the week unchanged at WR43 but will rise a place by reaching round 3 at Queens.

Who is going to be heading to the All England Club in a couple of weeks to watch the odd hitabout? What day will you be going?
