Not sure if this has already been posted but Natalie Beazant won her second G5 in a row in Dominican Republic, after winning in Honduras last week without dropping a set. She also won the doubles title in the Dominican Republic.

Last week - Aimee Gibson & Lauren Townrow won the doubes at a G5 in Spain.

This week - James Allemby & James Tubervill won the doubles at a G4 in Canada.

Week 44: Daniel Cochrane won G5 doubles in Andorra

DJ is unable to get online as much as he used to and has asked me to complete the "British Successes" threads for 2008 (N.B. this note is repeated on the other successes threads, so if you've read a note that starts like this on one of the other threads, so can safely ignore this one!) so I have now done that.

I've also done what I promised DJ months ago, i.e. created a proper 'roll of honour' page on the site for each of these threads - you can find links to them in the "BRITISH SUCCESSES" section of the revamped stats page at http://www.britishtennis.net/stats.html - do feel free, as ever, to point out any errors or make suggestions. Btw some errors on the original lists thread have already been corrected on the webpage version but not in this thread.

Putting these lists onto web pages ensures consistent formatting (virtually impossible on Activeboard unless you know exactly how the original poster has done the formatting) and that tables for prior years will be easier to find than prior years' threads will be once they are un-stickied.

Now that the pages have been set up for 2008, it should be easy enough to do the same for 2009, as long as the section specialists don't mind helping out by pointing out the things I don't automatically pick up while doing the GB top 25 tables, e.g. tournament wins for doubles and juniors and new career highs for doubles and for singles outside the top 1000.

So, once 2009 starts, I intend to de-sticky the 2008 successes threads, and start a new 2009 one in each section with just a link to the stats pages in the top post, with people posting updates in the rest of the thread that I'll then transfer to the web pages every week or two. Or I can send a copy of the spreadsheet that creates the web pages to a specialist if they'd prefer to update it themselves.

James Marsalek won a G4 singles title in the States last week. Both DavidC and the LTA reported that Steph Cornish won the doubles title at the same event, but on ITF it says she was runner-up.

Btw DJ was using courier new font size 2.

Thanks, that worked - though when you edit the post, the font on the bit I added now looks completely different even though the final version now looks the same as the rest - I wonder if I'll ever understand how activeboard works ...

I've added Marsalek's Week 51 win to the table - thanks for that too. All the official sources I can find say Steph lost the doubles Final, so I thnk we'll have to assume she did.

P in Thomson - that's one of the things I corrected on the new webpage but not on here. I'll change the week number on the webpage, there were one or two others that looked a it suspect too but I didn't have time to check.

Well spotted re the new junior rankings - interesting.
