this is going to be a real test for jamie, he has been fairly lucky with the draw opening up. no one has got a set of lu so far either. but he can go into the match with nothign to lose, pressur all on lu.

Jamie Baker reaching a 50K challenger final beating who he's beaten is so exciting.

His winter training block and time with coaches must have really fired him up!

He'll defo make AO quallies next year!!!!

Great win. Hopefully he can go out and do well in the final. It's been a good week for him regardless. :)

What a week for Jamie B. After all his struggles with American Challengers last season it looks like he has finally got the belief that he can compete at this level.

I make it that Jamie will have 157 points if he loses tomorrow. That will put him on the edge of the top 250 at a clear career high ranking. Obviously if he wins he will be well inside the top 250.

Lu will be tough, he has played two fewer matches and six fewer sets than Jamie but then again maybe Jamie will be more battle hardened.

155 - he's defending 3 points from GB F2 last year.  I make it ranked at 258 - just 8 points & 8 places behind Jonny Marray, and poised to overtake both Marray and Mackin if he wins

Hats off to Jamie Baker, what a stunning week.

Your right, I had removed GB F1 and Wrexham from my table but I missed GB F2


155 is still a decent total and it could be more.

with this ranking he can concentrate on Challengers properly now!

This has impressed me so much! Hope he can kick on from here. Get some good rest and qualify for Dallas and see where it goes...

February was looking quite scary for Jamie, with 27 points to defend, but this week ensures that he will stay in the top 300 (just) even if he doesn't defend any of them. With luck, his form this week will mean that he is more than capable of defending all of them, of course.
