still, better radio coverage on the amusing side than no coverage at all, heh?
As bad as this music is, I'm going to miss there not being any coverage at all of Cardiff next week, as I guess the LTA still haven't got there act together and got some decent coverage of the challengers
LTA coverage of the event will still be as non-existent as ever. no website, no scores, no reports.....
THis is the best of the bunch so far.... not saying much though is it....
I'm sure we could do this for the UK challengers... just get a load of people to go to the courts, and broadcast on the internet, just to show the LTA what can be done (or try a futures first in case it doesnt work)
have to hope for bbc updates. (an hope the bbc gets them right)
It would only take me a couple of hours to get there... so there is an outside chance that I may go, but I've probably got too much on to this week to make the journey and spend the whole day there
What's the betting on the BBC even mentioning Boggo has won this challenger?
good to see boggo fighting and converting that fight into a win - and with an audience. Too often he's fought hard but found a way to come out on the wrong side of the scoreline.
Hopefully spending time in the past several months around heady company and world-class coaches is helping him to pull his undoubtedly good game together.
yeah good point, I think it shows that his fitness is improving which is a big key on outdoor hard where the points are often longer and more gruelling. Being based in Florida has helped a lot with that, they have amazing gym facilities and also a better supply of practise partners. Believe it or not, Alex used to practise with Naim Lalji
Having the likes of Gilbert, Annacone and Lundgren all really rooting for him must also surely help Alex's confidence...at times in the past it must have felt like him v the establishment
no way! Ken's back saying "this guy is one of the best tennis players in the world" so I'm thinking, stretching it a bit for Boggo bu the has just won a tournament so... and then it turns out to be Fleishman...the loser. So what is going to be the build up for Boggo? "Better than Federer"?

Zach.... one of the best players in the world???
Would be quality if you can go Dan, maybe Sat for the final if you can't make it during the week. Bethan, are you still planning to go ?
BBC mentioning this...u must be joking, they probably don't even know this tourney is taking place
Odds: on them mentioning it: 50/1 on them not doing so: 1/2
what about LTA site, will they do so ? I think so as all their website guys read this board and britishtennis.net for info..which is a big compliment

no course not.....Boggo'll be "greatest of all time"
