Oh, okay. Staying in Britain won't be of a lot of help because there's only one grass Challenger this year after Wimbly (as we all know by now, the smaller the number of tournaments, more the number of players in the top 100). So he'll probably have to do a Futures, which I don't want him to.

Of course, another option is doing Dublin, chilling out for a week, doing Manchester and then going to the US.

One possibility for Alex could be:
Starting 2nd week Wimby - Winnetka IL, Granby Can, Aptos CA/Moncton Can, Lexington KY, Vancouver Can, then Binghamton + Bronx NY b4 the USOQ

I dont know if he would make the cuts for all of them, Vancouver defiantly not, and it is also quite a punishing schedule with 7 straight events right off the back off Wimby into the USOQ.

An alternative could be to play Dublin, week break, Manchester, then head stateside for Lexington and onwards. Also there is a hard ct Ch in brazil the week of Vancouver which could be an option.

At least there is a week break there after Wimby (where he may well be involved in singles, doubles and MD) and he doesnt have points to come off so I dont want him to over do it and get injured again.

But this is Boggo so I am sure he will do something I dont expect.

It gets worse!
Friday's OOP is out and only involves the four Singles QFs. furious

So doubles Semis must be on Saturday, even losing and getting the next flight (providing there is one at that time) Richard would be unlikely to get to Surbiton in time!  
This is really tough especially as it is not an +H event so it means paying for 2 days accommodation without playing, however I do realize  that 2 of the players are in both singles and doubles
