Jamie Baker is 2nd seed in qualifiers here and receives a first round bye (such a week qualifying draw for a challenger - 8th seed is ranked 905 in the world - wow, and there are 8 places in the draw taken by byes - surely a decent opportunity for some of the middle ranked Brits to have won easy points).
QR1:
bye
QR2:
Plays the winner of Malino Oda (USA) UNR v Jim Thomas (USA) UNR (but no 33 in doubles)
QR3:
Potentially plays the 7th seed, Chris Wettengel (USA) WR 708
I've been impressed with Jamie Bakers start to this season. His season last yeatr seemed to fizzle out very early. But some great results to start this year have reignited my interest!
Seemed a routine win over Thomas!
I'm fairly confident he'll have too much for Wettengel in his current form!
qualfiers have been drawn against Paul Goldstein, Brian Wilson, Scott oudesma and Brendan Evans (WC). Lets hope he can qualify and get Evans!!!!!
I wonder if they'll make the dubs draw together...
