RE: Week 12 - Futures F4 (10k) - Bath, Great Britain

The Hoose · Satellite level

Strangely enough, the BBC has now removed the results from its website, and has gone back to telling us about Frederik Johnsen's win over Sean Thornley in the British tour last week.

So these Futures results are now EXCLUSIVE to britishtennis.net - the greatest sports site in the world.

- let's hope the wins weren't wrong then!

Have you got the link to the BC page, I've lost it.

Thats not unusual with BBC "first you see it - now you dont"
It's been like that for months, goodness knows why!

It happens to be "now you don't" at the moment! hmm

In fact, that's all I've seen all day!

For the sake of completeness, i.e. the sanity of those of us who maintain updated draw sheets biggrin

, what of the Ball/Norby match? confused

Ah, wolfie seems to have answered Helki's & my questions - without providing all the scores...!

Oops, I thought I'd sent this before I went to take a call half an hour ago. ashamed

Hopefully it's not too much overkill to post it anyway - just the Brits, but with comparative rankings shown.

L32 Q1: (1) Richard Bloomfield WR 352 beat Rudy Coco (FRA) WR 615 by 3 & 3 smile

L32 Q1: (LL) Maniel Bains WR 1059 lost to (Q) Peter Lucassen (NED) WR 898 by 2 & 5 cry

L32 Q1: Ken Skupski WR 669 beat (WC) Daniel Evans WR 1274 by 4 & 4 smile

L32 Q1: (5) Miles Kasiri WR 519 beat (Q) Neil Bamford WR 828 by 4 & 4 smile

L32 Q2: (Q) Ian Flanagan WR 867 beat (Q) Adrien Bossel (SUI) WR 911 by 3-6 6-3 6-1 smile

L32 Q2: (WC) Tim Hewitt WR 1021 lost to Luca Vanni (ITA) WR 722 by 5 & 2 cry

L32 Q3: (WC) Andrew Fitzpatrick WR 1408 lost to (6) Gregoire Burquier (FRA) WR 576 by 4 & 1 cry

L32 Q3: (WC) Sean Thornley WR 1233 lost to Ralph Grambow (GER) WR 807 by 6-2 3-6 6-3 cry

L32 Q3: (4) Edward Seator WR 502 beat (Q) Burnham Arlidge UNR by 3 & 5 smile

L32 Q4: (2) Josh Goodall WR 343 beat Chris Eaton WR 651 by 2 & 2 smile

So every match involving a Brit went with rankings - that's quite unusual!

L16 Q1: (1) Richard Bloomfield WR 352 v (Q) Peter Lucassen (NED) WR 898
L16 Q1: (5) Miles Kasiri WR 519 v Ken Skupski WR 669
L16 Q2: (Q) Ian Flanagan WR 867 v (3) Carsten Ball (AUS) WR 359
L16 Q3: (4) Edward Seator WR 502 v Ralph Grambow (GER) WR 807
L16 Q4: (2) Josh Goodall WR 343 v Pierre Metenier (FRA) WR 694

In fact, the only rankings upset in all 16 matches today was one qualifier in the 1100s beating another qualifier in the 1000s!

ForeverDelayed · Grand Slam Champion

Totally expected day then in the end, but a little disappointed that none of the Brits could overcome higher ranked opponents in their matches.

Would expect 4 Brits in the QFs tomorrow as Bloomers, Goodall and Seator should win, while Skupski/Kasiri will win. Don't expect Flan the man to win but with him you simply never know what mood he is going to show up in

john · Top national player

Definitely not overkill steven, I appreciate the comparative rankings you put on the results. Not sure why you're so upset about Bossel losing though lol.
