Re. the poll - I asked Adam if he'd consider coming out of retirement to partner me, but when he found out I'd never had a ranking point, he refused, saying I wasn't good enough.

Apparently he's still waiting for Bloomers to call and ask him to partner him again, or for Queen's to call and offer him a WC ...

Gutted !    I guess he didn't want to go into the details of his shoulder injury atm....he went and dislocated it last month

Tennisbrain's going to the 2nd Bath 15K though, you should contact him and pair up for the doubles
 

 

Evans got a Davis Cup call up??????

Edit: Read it just now.

Yes, it will surely be something he'll remember for quite some time.

I couldn't choose between him and Cox for this one. But I always wanted him because it's his home city. Hopefully Cox will get chosen for the next one.

GO Sagoo !!!

We should get 5 qualifiers here...

Rushby shouldn't be unduly troubled, Podlewski could give him a good match in rd2 but with it being an indoor tournament it's not going to suit Podlewski's game so much.

Brydan Klein could provide some problems for Matt Smith in the final qualies round, he's only 17 and beat Sergei Bubka and Igor Sjisling last week in straights before taking a set off Zack Fleishman !! He's ranked no 4 in the junior world rankings.

If the courts in Bath are fast, Allinson could cause Bamford some problems in rd2...Neil should still edge through to the final qualies round though. He's seeded to play Richard Irwin and I can't see that being a big problem for Neil...he has a 4-0 H-H record against Irwin.

Sagoo should get past Nathan Carter and play Alex Miotto. He'll have a good chance of an upset as Miotto hasn't played since end of Feb and hasnt won a main draw match since September. Obviously he'll then be stopped by Slabba in the final qualies round.

Will be interesting to see how Tim Hewitt and Ed Corrie do here...can Hewitt get some wins. Corrie's the best chance of a lower ranked Brit causing an upset, he should get through to the final qualies round but then Zovko is blocking his path. Unfortunately the Croat is in reasonable form.
