Week 43 - Barnstaple 25K + H Challenger 2007.

Count Zero · Tennis legend

i think he should be playing shewsbury, he has won the event that week 2 years in a row now (1st sudnerland then shewbury)

i hope he gets a really nice draw in ukraine when it comes round.

Salmon · Tennis legend

Hardly anyone in the field is a nice draw.

And they normally give a wild card or two to top 50 players.

alex should have started the match then pulled out so allinson could have got a w/o :)

hmm, maybe thats frowned on tho

Wow! that looks a tight one. Haase at 97 and Bloomers at 268. Well done Bloomers for giving him a game.

Steve Darcis (Bel) bt Marcus Willis (Gbr) 6-2 6-3

Not bad.

Salmon · Tennis legend

Willis and Pauffley got a walkover.
Fischer and Rushby beat Delgado and Moser by 76(3) 46 10-8.

Do Willis and Pauffley get the points?

That (...their first match.....) is a continuation of the 2nd sentance, referring to the losers only.

Thanks, that clears it up. Congrats to the boys, then!

They're on a 13 match unbeaten streak in Juniors so maybe they'll find a way to beat Haase and Zib.

The boys lost 11-9 on the championship tie break. 4-6,7-5,9-11,they had 2 match points-shame!
