Great effort from Dan Cox, and an excellent win against Juniad. Much as I like him and want him to do well I'm very glad Goodall came back and won the match in three, he can play at a much higher level than he is at the moment and I hope that he's now working his way back up to the challengers.

Goodall was always the favourite against Cox, and I guess it is good for him that he got the win to try and get him back towards the challenger ranks, so he can be in a position to play them at the start of next year
Good for Cox to get a set as well, and he is definately improving rapidly on the senior stage, and will surely make the top 1000 by the end of the year
Skupski did as well as expected really, and hopefully his first QF can be the kickstart he needs to start making them regularly
Guess the winner of the top SF will win the doubles tournament, as the best players are all in the top half, and good to see Barton/Davison in the SF's (although I don't know anything about them) so they get their first doubles points
Lovely week in all fpr Cox, I guess. I believe that he becomes only the sixth 1990 born player to beat someone from the ATP top 400.
Told you that it was much better that he played Futures than get a call for the DC team.
Josh beat Niland 0 and 3 the only time they played - in Jersey earlier this year. Also, Goodall must really love the courts because he won out here in 2005, I think.
Good effort from Josh there, but this was a match that he needs to start winning if he is to get back towards the top 250 again
Barton and Davison finally got to play a doubles match in the tournament.... but lost 1 and 0, which shows they got an awful lot of luck to get there... still, they pick up some ranking points for that
