Wow, three new Brits to go on the ranking list from one tournament!

wolf · Tennis legend

Well Feaver already had a point which came on today..but yeah this is excellent stuff.

Wow, some excellent results there!

Slightly disappointing Bains couldn't make it even better but no shame to him. As for the rest...5 Brits in the quarters please

Well done to all the Brits who got their wins today, and especially to Benjamin George Levi who finally gets his well deserved ranking point

Good luck to all the Brits tomorrow, although I'd expect only Seator and Feavor to win and then meet in the QF's, and then hopefully Seator can carry on and win the title here (and looking at the draw, he has a chance to do well, but clearly that means he will fall apart against some unknown)

I think the Rwandans might be poisining the players, there has been seven lucky losers, so six Rwandans that lost in qualifiying got in the main draw.

Well done to Ed and James. Good efforts by Brewer and BGL.

Ed, you have to make the semis this time.

He has beaten Sabeckis on clay this year, so he should go on to make the final.

DUSTY DICK · Club Coach

Great to see Ed win again.
Been following his results all year.
Good week all round for others here getting points.

A brit in the semis is good to see, such a shame that it has to be only one of them though

I'd really like to see Seator break the top 500, but at the same time, I want to see Feaver heading up the rankings as well!

Shame for Bright, hopefully he doesn't take that defeat to heart though, with a ranking difference of effectively 2000 places, he shouldn't be too upset with the scoreline and he comes away with a point on the board.

steven · Tennis legend

At the rate he's piling up the points (and the rate most of the other Brits are failing to defend them), Feaver is going to go from off the rankings to onto my GB Top 25 table in record time! LOL
