RE: Week 22 - Futures F1 (10k) - Krsko, Slovenia

ForeverDelayed · Grand Slam Champion

A point for Milton and an almost certain point for Rice means that this week is looking good so far. Hopefully they can pull off an upset each in the second round and then play each other for a semi final spot to make this a great week

Not only that, but he went on to win his doubles QF with Josh: they beat the Slovenes, Bende & Starc, 6-7(3) 6-1 [12-10]!

Bit of an up & down match, that!

L32: David Rice WR 1181 beat (WC) Martin Rmus (SLO) UNR by 2-6 6-4 6-1 smile

L32: Josh Milton WR 1187 beat (LL) Mitja Zajsek (SLO) UNR by 1 & 4 smile

L16: David Rice WR 1181 v (6) Marcel Zimmermann (GER) WR 552
L16: Josh Milton WR 1187 v (2) Vjekoslav Skenderovic (CRO) WR 339

Zimmermann thrashed Miles Kasiri 4 & 0 in Edinburgh earlier this month, following his first-ever match against a Brit the previous day, when he thrashed Jack Cartenter 2 &0. Skenderovic's record against Brits is 1-1 v Morgan Phillips, both in 2006, and 2-0 v David Corrie.

Inexplicably, there's no sign of any singles results on the ATP site, but the doubles are there: the boys waltzed into the final after a 3 & 4 defeat of the unseeded Austrians, Hirner & Propst! smile

Their opponents in the final will be the Austrian second seeds, Reissig & Steinberger.

Not on the ATP site, but posted on the ITF's - & it's not good news! cry

Perhaps not unexpected given the difference in rankings? hmm

Fingers crossed for the doubles final. wink
