Conut - having seen your BBC men's post now as well as your new signature here, I'm now thinking maybe you really do think the player Alex beat yesterday is called Zevrev and it wasn't just a typo?

---

yes i invented a new player called Zevrev JL also already kindly pointed out i had it wrong on the AB site too

i take it you guessed the sig's meaning, its not too hard, again maybe a quiz question.

Here's a question the Boodles sent me, it's a competition to win some tickets, but I swear there is no answer!!??

"Which World Top 20 player, scheduled to appear at The Boodles, made it through to a Grand Slam quarter final for the first time this week in Paris?"
