Permalink  

Tournament Key : M-FU-GBR-05A-2008
Dates : 24 Mar to 30 Mar 2008
Venue : St Peter, Jersey, Great Britain
Surface : Hard

Fresh from his title in Bath Josh should be the highest British seed.

Slabba, Kasiri & Skupski should make the MD.

Bammy, Flanagan,Brewer, Smith, Feaver, Hewitt, Bains, Illingworth, Phillip Barlow, Thornley, Miotto, Kinsellea, Bradshaw & Sagoo are in the alts with more Brits Im sure.

Jag should have a wildcard here Drew. Hopefully he can win as his point will drop off after Miami. Needs to keep that world ranking to get the seedings in qualifying draws. If he could just stay healthy for more than a few weeks at a time!

QR1: Amar Vora UNR v Roel Oostdam (NED) WR 1289 
QR1: Charles Cohen UNR v Patrick Ogier UNR
QR1: Peter Dowdeswell UNR v Wojciech Starakiewicz (POL) WR 1502
QR1: Timothy Patient UNR v Luke Campbell UNR
QR1: Ashley Davies UNR v Jiri Kosler (CZE) WR 1502

QR2: Vora or Oostdam v (q1) Carl Bergman (SWE) WR 671
QR2: (q10) Matthew Illingworth WR 1127 v Jagdev Sagoo WR 1502
QR2: Cohen or Ogier v (q2) Pierre Metenier (FRA) WR 694
(the other seed in S2 is (q9) Daniel Danilovic (MNE) WR 1059)
QR2: Dowdeswell or Starakiewicz v (q3) Mait Kunnap (EST) WR 723
QR2: (q16) Daniel Evans WR 1274 v Andrew Fitzpatrick WR 1408
QR2: Patient or Campbell v (q4) Patrick Eichenberger (SUI) WR 755
QR2: Jonathan Howell UNR v (q13) Andrej Martin (SVK) WR 1197
QR2: Davies or Kosler v (q5) Ralph Grambow (GER) WR 807
QR2: James Faudemer UNR v (q12) Saar Steele (ISR) WR 1143
QR2: (q14) Sean Thornley WR 1233 v Harri Heliovaara (FIN) WR 1502
(the other seed in S5 is (q6) Peter Lucassen (NED) WR 898)
QR2: Jordan Miles UNR v (q7) Adrien Bossel (SUI) WR 911
QR2: Nikki Roenn UNR v (q11) Dawid Celt (POL) WR 1127
QR2: Jordan Roberts UNR v (q8) Jerzy Janowicz (POL) WR 936
QR2: Chris Hickling UNR v (q15) Leander van der Vaart (NED) WR 1233

No. 1 seed Bergman was just below Skupski on the entry list, which implies that Ken scraped a DA or got in with a WC but none of the other Brits on the list would have got in without a WC - this means that most of Bammy, Flan, Brewer, Smith, Feaver, Hewitt & Bains can't have turned up.
 
Who the WCs went to is anyone's guess - not Sagoo as you can see, maybe a couple of the players I have just listed plus Arlidge & Morgan after last week's relative success? Hardly any Brits with a chance of qualifying have turned up - we only have three seeds and none of them are the top seed in their section.

Why on earth doesn't Jag have the wildcard? Scandalous. Is it actual LTA policy to give wildcards to British Tour winners or is it a case of if your face fits? Either way, I think Jag has a good chance of qualifying. As long as he stays fit for a month or so he'll be regularly qualifying and scoring points from now on imo

As expected, lots of bagels and breadsticks getting handed out to Brits today (and sorry to see Fitzy lose a tight 2-setter too, albeit to another Brit), but if you're 'patient', you might be in for a nice surprise. wink

22-year-old Patient had a career high of 1168 in 2004 but then played just six tournaments in 2005, one in 2006 and none last year. In his comeback tournament last week, he lost very narrowly 6-1 4-6 6-7(4) to Oostdam in QR1, this week he's already improved on that performance!

See also http://www.scotthamptonfoundation.org.uk/events/tennis.htm - he seems to have been coaching at one of the David Lloyd clubs over the past couple of years.

And any Brits that are in qualies are all playing each other.

That crazy Pole is back though!

Jerzy Janowicz (POL) WR 936 is a junior grand slam champion.

Think Sean Thornley has a chance. Heliovaara and Lucassen are tough but winnable.

HOpefully the main draw will be a little more exciting.

I'd guess that wcs have gone to likes of Cox, Milton, Smethurst, Hewitt maybe ??

Strange that Sagoo hasn't got one but not entirely surprised he lost to Illingworth who's got to be one of the worst possible opponents game-wise for a player like Sagoo........Illingworth's really fast, runs everything down and metronomically consistent

Cox, Milton and Smethurst are all in Turkey for some reason failing to get thru 128 qualifying draws and pissing about in doubles.

An interesting twist.

Does that mean we have a main draw published?
