I had absolutely no idea that he was doing a Futures this week. This is very much a hasty decision as he said that he had no plans of playing men's tennis before Bournemouth and Edinburgh.

Great decision, this one.

This Futures is played in the lovely city of Granada, which is very near to where Cox lives, so that explains it.


Boje will be tough as he is a young guy (19 years old) and has beaten both Slabba and Kalaitzis in the recent past. And Cox has to win a round to get to him, which won't be an easy task as he lost to unranked players on the dirt last year. But he'll do well if he plays properly.


Ward should get through comfortably.

Yeah. Ward should make it! We'll have to wait and see about Coxy!

If Morgan was fit and playing he'd be 8th seed.

But he's not and he's not

Marcelo Palacios-Siegenthale may be unranked but he did record a win over Ward earlier this year, so let's hope Ward can get revenge. He also beat Oscar Podlewski late last year so this is still a tough draw for James.

Cox's opponent, Guerrero-Pancorbo is yet to win a match at ITF senior level, so you would expect Cox to come through that match.

Ward seemed to be playing under par imo for January and February this year.

My hope is he can hit form again for the clay season.

Main draw:

Rematch of the Roehampton quarters for Dan!

Bautista is a big guy and is in form, so it'll be tough. I'm sure that Dan will win if he plays properly.

R1: (Q) Daniel Cox WR 1166 v (SE) Roberto Bautista-Agut (ESP) WR 910
R1: (Q) James Ward WR 854 v Sergio Perez-Perez (ESP) WR 853


Reasonable draws for both Brits, though Bautista-Agut must be on form to have got a SE. James gets the chance to take on the player who edged him out of a DA for the main draw by just one ranking place.

They don't play tomorrow.


Roumenov is representing Spain from this week onwards! Bad loss for the Bulgarians.
