Still not updated on the AITA or ATP sites, but unofficially:

R1: Robert Searle WR 884 lost to (1) Karan Rastogi (IND) WR 383 by 3 & 1 cry
R1: (Q) Jonathan Kinsella UNR beat (7/WC) Ashutosh Singh (IND) WR 746 by 6-3 3-6 7-5 biggrin
R1: (8) Matt Smith WR 751 beat Vishal Punna (IND) WR 975 by 3 & 3 smile

R2: (Q) Jonathan Kinsella UNR v Hsin-Han Lee (TPE) WR 762
R2: (8) Matt Smith WR 751 v Purav Raja (IND) WR 887

Jonathan's excellent week continues as he gets himself onto the ranking list! smile

The Brits are due to play their R2 matches on Wednesday.

R2: (Q) Jonathan Kinsella UNR lost to Hsin-Han Lee (TPE) WR 762 by 3 & 3
R2: (8) Matt Smith WR 751 beat Purav Raja (IND) WR 887 by 3 & 4

QF: (8) Matt Smith WR 751 v Tsung-Hua Yang (TPE) WR 1055

This is Matt's first QF this year and he has struck it lucky, because his QF opponent is outside the top 1000 and only got through R2 because the no. 2 seeds retired.

Salmon · Tennis legend

I won't underestimate Yang, though. He is just 16, so must be very talented to have a ranking close to the top 1000.

mkkreuk · Admin:Moderator + ATP qualifying

He's had a fair few decent victories over a couple of Japanese and Indonesian players with the highest being ranked about 550. Most of the others have been around 800-1100 in the rankings.

Yang hasn't won a match this year either (he's had two matches on clay and lost them both)

steven · Tennis legend

QF: (8) Matt Smith WR 751 lost to Tsung-Hua Yang (TPE) WR 1055 by 1 & 0 ashamed

Matt's first QF this year and it looked like he had struck it lucky too, because his QF opponent was outside the top 1000 and only got through R2 because the no. 2 seed retired.

However, he fed Matt a breadstick followed by a bagel, a stunningly bad result. I wonder if Matt was unwell or something.

john · Top national player

As Arka said, he shouldn't have been underestimated to be at that ranking at just 16. He could be anything, who knows how talented he will prove to be.
