Sadly Jewitt isn't that young.

But we've got Daniel Smethurst. Impressive results for a 16 year old:

A wild card should go his way sometime soon.

I'm tempted to say it's because Johnny doesn't have to eat his house, but in fact it was a mistake (now corrected) and just a coincidence that it occurred on that result!

Quite a win for Jewitt....hopefully he kept that form up today and reached the main draw.

Two interesting matches took places: Rushby v Irwin, Kennaugh v  Brewer.  Rushby has a 3-0 head-to-head record against Irwin and has won the last two in straights. I wonder how much that amazing match against Allinson yesterday, took out of him. Kennaugh beat Brewer 6-2, 7-6 on clay in 2005. He's more consistent but Brewer has more weapons and is a harder hitter.

Hopefully Smith can continue his resurgence, he's a better player than any of the guys in the qualies here, hopefully the injuries of 2006 are behind him. He's beaten Melskens twice in the past.

Just been speaking to Slabba...

He has a main draw wildcard, was a bit pissed off as he turned up for the qualies and signed in and then found out he'd got a wildcard and so he's had to pay to stay in Barnstaple for 2 days before he plays.

He's got a tough draw unfortunately, he plays 6th seed Freddy Nielsen in round 1. Nielsen is ranked 347, he was top 300 last year (career high: 292). However, he's lost his last 4 matches. Bladetiger wasn't impressed with Nielsen when he saw him in Shrewsbury last November so maybe Slabba has a chance.

Alex says that Nielsen has a good serve, hits very flat off both sides and has good hands.

He said that the Austrian experience was very tough, he wished that he'd brought clay shoes with him even though it was indoors as it so slippery, impossibly to move.

He's good to Portugal for 2 weeks of futures on hard courts at the end of February

He told me that Seator lost in the final qualifying round today

Unfortunately Kennaugh, Irwin and Seator didn't hang around to see if there were any lucky loser places and Benneteau got the one which came up

Go Morgan! I think that he'll win this one.


Thornley can get his second point.

Morgan's probably our best chance of getting a ranking point from this Future. Nice to see him in the UK - hope the cold doesn't get to him!

Nice to see Slabba back after broken noses and dodgy surfaces...

If he can beat Nielsen hopefullt his draw would open up a bit!

Really hopeful for Morgan Philips here!

Its the sort of chance people like Connolly, Miotto and Thronley needs to start taking if they want to seriously push up the rankings!
