Some nice luck there for James, and he really should win the tournament now, and he is by far the best player left in the tournament, although this is the kind of oppotunity British players have often not taken advantage of, so hopefully that will change here

Hopefully we will be reading about his first title in a few days time, which will really help him make the top 500, and hopefully be able to move into the challenger ranks by the end of the year

Rob C what would be the rankings impact if Ward won this ?

I think it would take him to around 520/530, but that depends on other results, and how many points you get for winning this event (of course, the points don't go on until next week as well, so he wouldn't move up straight away)

phew - nothing to add there. Looking forward to him adding another 100 points so he can join the Jamie & Richard table

Eaton/Ward lost 4-6, 6-2, 10-6 in the doubles quaters.

SF :

WARD, James (GBR) 5 v SIE, Elbert (INA) WR844

Why did the comms from Jakarta have to go down this week. Why no results form today?

Don't go to bed! That's what I do when I don't know a score.
