Why does everyone want Ward to beat Rushby ?

Going to be a really interesting one ! Rushby did great last week but I think Ward will edge it, being a clay-courter. Impressive that neither have been really tested on the way to the final qualies round.

Just looked at Ward's activity, strange how he's only played 3 tournament since October. Seems to like really spreading out his tournaments.

The courts don't really suit Irwin's game at all, but he seems to be grinding out the results well..won a couple of close ones in the last 2 rounds. Czerwinski will be tricky as he beat Aussie 3rd seed Miles Armstrong (ranked 719) 7-5, 1-6, 6-3 in the 3rd round.

Pritchard and Allinson's results were pretty much expected. Kennaugh is also really struggling out there, not playing too well.

No offence to Rushby, but Ward is like our mini-Morgan! The Brit who has done it the hard way so far on the Spanish Futures circuit!

So its Red cabbage and Imoen in the running for the spot prize of 20AM's.

Nows the dilemma. Do either of you actually want Irwin to lose?

I certainly don't, but I am happy to be in a win-win situation

Who voted for 2 Brits to go through? Your AMs are up for grabs for those people too surely?

What happened to Brewer? You had him down as winning rounds 1 and 2 but then nothing

Gazzpash, do you mean Ed Corrie ?

He won rd2 in 3 sets but then lost in 3 sets in rd3

Brewer's in Jersey, he's got a wildcard

I'm fairly sure I covered that base by voting for 2 myself! See my first post in this thread!

Slabba teams up with Aussie Miles Armstrong to play doubles.

They've got the top seeds in R1 though...

Rushby plays with Kennaugh this week and they are 3rd seeds.

I didn't realise that there was am at stake here! I can't be 100% sure that's what I put so don't include me...give it all to Imoen if it's right (that way I can want Irwin to win with no feelings of guilt :) )
