can we change the poll to which brit wil go the furthest?

2 brits winning opening matches over higher ranked opponents! how often does that happen

Done! (finally worked out how to change a poll) - you can vote for more than one if you think they're all going to go the same distance.

LOL then someone else changed it 5 seconds later. Unfortunately it looks like those who already voted on the original poll can't vote on the new one.

hey arka you might be inetrested to know i got bt at tennis by a 13yr old kid from bombay, who also trains at sanchez casal. didnt get his full name just 1st name Raoul, and he had won his club event for 2 years running! (and he was also good at football) what he was doing playing tennis in hyde park i have no idea, but he did give me some good tips and now my serve is much better!

Wow, that is most interesting! Are you sure about the name, though? As that's not Indian. In case you just heard him say it (and not spell it), it's more likely that it is 'Rahul', a name in which the 'h' isn't pronounced totally, so it sounds almost the same as 'Raoul'.

Anyway, it's very strange that he got to Barcelona from Bombay! Hopefully he'll be a top pro one day and you'll be able to boast that you were beaten by him.
