The way the draw 'trees' for tournaments with four qualifying rounds turn back on themselves is very confusing, but yet, unfortunately Josh lost. Diez has been a real pain, he's knocked out both of our highest-ranked player in qualifying. Great to see Ward make the FQR and Smethurst get through to the main draw though. I wonder when they'll release that.

i think im right in saying that smethurst is the only british player who has scored points in every tournament that he has played in so far this year. could be wrong though.
