Flanagan is obviously in the mood this week. Keen to defend as many of thos epoints as possible!

6-3 6-3 could have been quite close...guess we'll never know.

Flanagan has a great chance to go on and win this playing like that!

OK, from now on, I say that the Brits should only play doubles

- Andy & Tim shoudl team up, and we'll beat the world.

Doubles is great, don't get me wrong but I'd have preferred they lost the dubs and Flanagan to be in the semis!

Still a good week from Flan. He has to set himself a target of maybe 3 months to get those points back. It's possible, but he will have to be at his very best.

Good display from the boys.

Flanagan should play outside Britain more often!

Good win there for Flanagan and Rushby, and doubles looks to be the speciality for us Brits at the moment... guessing the decision to play more doubles is paying off at the moment

Great stuff from the guys in doubles this week and Flanagan in the singles. Shame he lost to Morel in the quarters, that was a great chance to make a final. That French geezer has beaten Kasiri 3 and 2 this year but has a lot of points from weak African futures

However, Flanagan did get very jammy in rd2 as his opponent (the top seed who he beat 6-1, 6-3) had a bad shoulder injury !

Nice win for the boys

That injury perhaps explains both his R2 match and the QF. He wasn;t playing as well as we thought basically!!!
