(1) Andy Murray: Won ATP Doha, dropping just 2 sets

(2) Jamie Baker:   Qualified for a grand slam for the first time in Melbourne and pushed Karlovic to 4 sets in rd1

(3) Richard Bloomfield:  Won 10K title in Sunderland and then made semis the following week in Sheffield to move back towards top 300

(4)  Ken Skupski:  Made the singles semis in Tipton, plus won doubles title in Sunderland and made another final in Sheffield

(5) Dan Smethurst:  Reached first 10K quarters in Tipton,    beating a top 700 player

(6) Da Count Zero:  Did his bit for british tennis, dashing across london late at night with Boggo's spare rackets and shoes and making a tight deadline to make sure he's fully prepared for the Argentina tie.....plus his story then made it into the national papers

I voted for smethurst purely because his results were so unexpected... especially beating Klier

soo tempted to go for Count, and I see a couple of people have already biggrin.gif

In the end though Smethurst won out for me (very very closely followed by Jamie B) - Sheddie you forgot to add that Dan got his first point in Sunderland a couple of weeks ago as well.

voted for JB tho, beating 3 top 200 players in straights is very impresive followed by a good me perfromance, i dont know for certain but that is probably the 1st time jamie has done that in his career.

Tough one. Some tournament victories but you have to play who's in front of you.

I vote Baker.

I go for Ken. He's done well in both singles and doubles over the past weeks and his making strides up the rankings with the consistency.

Has to be smethurst, he has had the best 3 weeks of his career getting his first point in sunderland, winning the grade 1 in cezch and then reaching a quarters of a 10k in tipton. Confidence has got to be high for him now

Smethurst all the way. All the others have done nothing special by their own standards, barring Baker to an extent.

I wish that I could vote for both Smethurst and the Count, though!
