I can't find an OoP for the seniors, I'm afraid, John, nor a note of which matches are on the centre court, the one that's being televised. However, matches generally are scheduled to start at 10.00 local time, which is 13.00 for us.
Perhaps we should ask Stircrazy for help - she's a linguist, and doubtless speaks Portugese proficiently; given her knowledge of Japanese scripts (cf the Bloomfield in Kyoto thread), I would put nothing beyond Lynne's ken!

On Mens Tennis Forums they say that Angus lost in the quarters to Jose Pereira 7-5, 7-5.

A good week that should see him very close to the top 50.

Willis won his first match in Italy, but thats all I know.

Decent week for Niall.

Johanna Konta got to the semis so should break into the top 30 now.
