hey guys, thanks for the score updates. No live score link seems to work.Do you have anything new on Marcos game?Btw do they play on the acrylic outdoor court?
Things are going pretty brilliantly so far, hopefully slabba can get a win today as well. I suppose playing at Roehampton is a massive boost to players like boggo who must play there all the time. Thanks for all the updates Count

Steven: My one and only reaction to that table is "Wow", it is the first time that I have seen it and am overawed by the effort that you have been going to, please remember that it is very much appreciated and I will most definitely make good use of the resource!
Thanks James, I'm glad you like it. Fortunately, so much carries over from week to week that it's not quite as much effort as it looks

That's even more useful info than the thread's hit count (which, btw, has gone up 4000 already today to nearly 14000!) - it means that at least 150 people are checking the scores (since I'm sure nearly all of them are on here for that reason) and that's just a snapshot - if other people are coming on from time to time and going away again, as I'm sure they are, the number interested in live scores could be far higher ... and who knows how many times that number are looking at the LTA site where they'd expect to find the info and giving up because they don't know about this one! Great evidence that proper live scores would be valued by lots of people.
11 have even bothered to sign up as new members since Surbiton started to - welcome to all of them and the hordes of guests!
