UK Calendar


This may be old news on here but, from when I last looked, the LTA have added 3 x 10k's in the autumn followed by a 3rd challenger event in Jersey to finish the year off.

Nothing to do with the UK calendar, but check out the Challengers calendar which has been updated till October - http://www.atptennis.com/en/common/TrackIt.asp?file=http://www.atptennis.com/en/tournaments/fullcalendar/challengers2008.pdf

The new big Challengers in Asia are a great opportunity for fast surface players. Boggo doesn't get much of a chance to play on Carpet, so hopefully he'll do St. Petersburg qualies and Tashkent before that.

i expect alex will play kolding rather than tashkent to be honest, cant see him switching surfaces or going to uzbek when there is a western european challenger on.

for him it will probably go:
grenoble, mons, rennes, kolding, week break/atpq & aachen (which is in germamny! according to the atp) then prob jersey to finish off.
of course this is assumsing he has an average summer

Yeah, I don't see him going to Uzbekistan, either, but St. Peteresburg qualies is always terribly weak and you get 10 points for qualifying. Last year Dolgopolov was the fourth seed and all eight seeds had first round byes. So one bye, one win against a Futures player and one against a Challenger player - and you're playing in a big money Tour event!

That'll probably change a bit with Tashkent being played the week before, although it's not like it is very close to St. Petersburg, so who knows.
