Of the four matches yesterday, there were two walk- overs and a retirement: pass the immodium!

I'm sure Robin Haase wouldnt agree, having had to retire in his first round match against Bloomers but at least he played 8 games, which is 8 more than Richard played at the same event last year!

Don't worry, the number is publicly available on the factsheet on the LTA site so it can't be top secret.

A break up ... could he do it ...

Sounds like a good plan, they probably don't appreciate being hassled more often than that. If you want me to do one of them, just let me know.

Apparently he lost the first set

CBV · Junior player

apparently guez got the first set (mtf)

steven · Tennis legend

That's a pity - when you're playing someone that much higher-ranked and get ahead, if you can't keep your nose in front, it's usually curtains.

steven · Tennis legend

Come to think of it, it's odd how they were reporting Slabba up 4-3 with a break and Capkovic up 5-4 with a break and now they're reporting that both lost the 1st set - possible, obviously, but sounds like too much of a coincidence. Unfortunately I think it's more likely they got the set winners correct.

I've been trying to answer MTF questions re. who Slabba is, turns out (predictably) that all they really want to know if if he's worth betting on in future!

Its constantly busy :-S so i can't check

seagull · Hall of fame

4-4 in second set

XCW4EVA · County player

Slabba lost 4 and 4, which is pretty respectable

Jack · Intermediate Club Player

Yes good effort from Slabba, looks like he has been broken right at the end of each set.
