Providing Andy is fit by then, of course. (Edit, he wasn't )
Boggo may have a chance of making the draw, as 6th alt?(Edit, he did!)
Please note that this is played in a Davis Cup week and Italy have a tie. If Bracciali gets picked, he will have to miss this. Sadly Colombia has a bye. Otherwise Falla would have been a sure withdrawal.
Not only did Alex make MD (playing Stepanek in round 1) James Auckland made qualies and is 8th seed! - Amazingly for a big tournament like this all but one qualifier is ranked 238 or lower.
Of all tyrannies a tyranny exercised for the good of its victim may be the most oppressive.... those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience
