Im looking for Cox to do something big now, i think its time for cox to go deep ion one of these futures. We know hes talented and has planety of time on his side, but hes been consistently beating players wth rankings, looking for him to do it a few times in one week now

Ken Skupski has appeared on the scene at the right time for me....good to see someone new making their way...only hope is that he can be come a class player and top 100.

Coxy

Bloomers should not be getting pushed that close by Bamford.

So close for Illingworth and Eaton vs tough opponents. Eaton getting a set off Fischer is v.encouraging.

Sort of match Ken needs to win to really make a mark. He's still on the rise though!

Well done to Dan, Josh and Rich. Quite pleased with Dan's efforts this week.

Quarter finals:

Richard Bloomfield [267] vs. Armin Sandbichler [431] of Austria
Joshua Goodall [310] vs. Daniel Cox [1036]

Rich is far better than Sandbichler, so we should have a British finalist.

I'm quite annoyed that Cox is running into Goodall for the third time in his last seven tourneys. Good luck to both.

Come On Coxy, Should improve his chances of a WC at barnstaple

RobC · All-time great

Thanks for the news Brian, How did Sandbichler look: should Bloomers easily beat him? Will you be back there today?

Drew · Oct 18, 2007

Cox has shown enough that he can mix it with Josh....I like Josh....but would be good for a Cox win !!
