No Bloomers, so looks like he'll go for Marseille qualies. No Lee Childs...

Wild card choices?

I'd go for - Morgan Phillips, Miles Kasiri, Slabba and Tom Rushby. And Chris Eaton if Morgan somehow gets a direct entry.

Phillips, Kasiri and Slabba would defo be my choices. As for the last I think Flanagan is playing quite well this year. Will he need one or would he get a DA?

GB MATCHES IN THE QUALIFYING DRAW

QR1: Edward Corrie WR 1418 v Joseph Dewhurst UNR
QR1: Kyle Brassington UNR v Victor Schmid (GER) WR 1539
QR1: Edward Allinson WR 1539 v Burnham Arlidge UNR
QR1: Matthew Illingworth WR 1539 v Marc Meigel (GER) WR 1279
QR1: Chris Priddle UNR v Thomas Williams UNR
QR1: Daniel Jewitt UNR v Jared Robinson (RSA) UNR
QR1: Simon Childs WR 1539 v Antoine Benneteau (FRA) WR 1243
QR1: Peter Francis UNR v Thomas Kostro (AUT) UNR
QR1: Ben Pritchard UNR v Boris Obama (FRA) UNR

QR1: + lots of byes

QR2: Corrie or Dewhurst v (q1) Ralph Grambow (GER) WR 593
QR2: (q2) Matt Smith WR 659 v Brassington or Schmid
QR2: Alexander Farquharson UNR v (q9) Jacob Melskens (DEN) WR 900
QR2: (q3) Tom Rushby WR 675 v Allinson or Arlidge
QR2: (q11) Richard Irwin WR 972 v Aleksandar Cucuz (SUI) WR 1539
QR2: Illingworth or Meigel v (q4) Rasmus Norby (DEN) WR 710
QR2: (q15) Edward Seator WR 1110 v Matthew Taylor UNR
QR2: (q5) Andrew Kennaugh WR 751 v Priddle or Williams
QR2: (q10) David Brewer WR 924 v Ben Dunbar UNR
QR2: Jewitt or Robinson v (q6) Benjamin Ebrahimzadeh (GER) WR 758
QR2: Childs or Benneteau v (q7) Juho Paukku (FIN) WR 789
QR2: (q13) Ross Connolly WR 1056 v (WC) Takanyi Garanganga (ZIM) UNR
QR2: Francis or Kostro v (q8) Martin Pedersen (DEN) WR 898
QR2: (q14) Jim May WR 1060 v Pritchard or Obama


I think this must mean that Morgan and Flan have WCs or have scraped in as DAs. The next highest ranked players who were on the Alt list are Bammy, Eaton, Slabba and Ward, but I wouldn't like to guess whether any of them or a couple of juniors will get the remaining WCs.

Btw, I was a bit shocked to see a B Obama on the OoP after he declared his candidacy for the US presidency this weekend.

QR1 and QR2 are both due to be played on Sunday.

If Ross Connolly doesn't reach QR3 (unless he's injured) I'll eat my house!

Oh, beware!  Just think what happened to Shedman for a prophesy like that!

Why does the unranked Zimbabwean Garanganga have a wildcard?

I don't think that the LTA are particularly bothered who gets the qualifying wildcards   If you went along there on the Saturday night and asked for one, you'd probably get it

Because he is a pretty highly rated Junior player who trains in some academy in Florida.

The qualifying draw is supposed to be 48, but there are only 41 players in it. So I think that means that literally anyone could have turned up at the club, signed in, and ended up playing.

Yeah, but then why the WC? He would get the direct entry as long as he has an IPIN (and of course he does).


It may be so that he missed the sign in deadline by a few minutes but due to his high profile he was given the WC and allowed to play.


I don't really know.
