Willis!

So close!!! I spoke a little bit to him yesterday and he was saying that he was back to form after the dry patch he went through in the last month or so. Such a shame that he didn't draw someone else.

Dan got another ranking point. That makes my day!

Illingworth.

OMG @ those results...

that's amazing stuff from Willis to get a set ! I thought that'd be done and dusted for De Bakker in two

No wonder he beat Matt Smith if he's in this form and on clay too ! This week's results have gotta give him loads of confidence that he can get his first world ranking soon, maybe next week in Edinburgh with the right draw !

Illingworth, what a win ! He really seems to have been on fire since March, came within a point of winning a set against Bloomfield indoors last month. Sidorenko's been making the latter stages of 15Ks on the clay recently...that's gotta be shock upset of the year !

Great win from Dan against someone who made a 10K final this year, taking him in straights is v impressive...another point, how far is he off top 1000 now ?

Dan now plays Illingworth for a place in the quarters, who would have thought that !!! Great chance for both of them...especially with Niland the other seed in their quarter, chance to make a 15K semi !

And the funniest part is that clay is possibly Marcus's weakest surface! He has to get a wild card to Edinburgh now!

This win takes Dan's total to 5. He needs 3 more points to crack the top 1000.

Illingworth had his chances. He was a break up in both the sets.
