Boggo is the 5th seed here, and starts off against Robert Smeets of Australia... and hopefully will be another sport that we beat them at

(1) Roger-Vassellin vs. Q
Wang vs. Braccialli
Recouderc vs. Muller
Smeets vs. (5) Bogdanovic

If Bloomers does qualify, he will play either Roger-Vassellin, Phau, Haenhel or Chardy

No reason why Boggo shouldn't win this tournament. Hoping for a big week!

Did they have a webcam last year?

You won't believe this.

Doubles first round

James Auckland and Ross Hutchins v Jamie Delgado and Gilles Muller

Repeat of the quater-final last week, which Aucks/Hutch won 7-6, 6-2.

And also

Richard Bloomfield and Lukas Lacko v Alun Jones and Robert Smeets

Winner of the two matches to play each other!

Nice to see 4 Brits playing at challenger level

le britannique Richard Bloomfield et le français Baptiste Dupuy se sont livrés à une belle bagarre qui a rendu Bloomfield vainqueur après deux manches acharnées, 7/5 7/6.

Yes! a win -  according to Babelfish ?


Richard Bloomfield and French Baptiste Dupuy devoted themselves to a beautiful brawl which made Bloomfield victorious after two {baited sleeves, (long sets?)} 7/5 7/6.

Someone fluent in french please?

Also the title - Mannarino et Bloomfield passent = Mannarino and Bloomfield pass

alex has beaten smeets twice this year both times strigth sets on hard courts, so he should be happy with that opening match.

vasselin in the qf's tho, he plays a Q 1st. hopefully not bloomers if he makes it.

I occasionally read brief match reports and headlines in French on Teletext (a Swiss satellite TV channel), and 'passer' is commonly used to indicate winners, along with oui/non for simple headlines. I've never seen a description of a match as "une belle bagarre" though! Anyway there is no doubt that the report says that Bloomers won 75 76

So Bloomers qualification match is against Jean-Cristophe Faurel.

Currently ranked 305 but has been higher I think. He appears to have won his QR2 match 6-2. Maybe the French ponly have to win one set in this tournament and they're awarded the win!
