RE: Aus Open Qualifying list


Still got 4 Aus main draw wildcards to be announced so Slabba must surely get in. I can't imagine they'll give all 4 to players ranked outside the top 300.

Excellent news indeed.

Of course I hope to have them all still in at the end of the week but right now I'm going to pin my hopes on them all being drawn in different parts of the draw please.gif)

Wonder what odds you would get against all 4 qualifying ??

I would consider getting 2 through a great result, 1 OK, and none ( my prediction, please prove me wrong ! ) a hmmm !

For me any more than zero would be fantastic. If one or two get to the final round it would still be a good performance.

It would be nice to make it a hat-trick of years with qualifiers after three lean years (though we probably had Greg and Tim in the main draw back then) - GB's recent history in men's AOQ, including W-L ratios in qualifying only, is as follows:

2008: 2 played - W 4 L 1 - Baker qualified (L to Karlovic in R1), Boggo reached QR2

2007: 5 played - W 5 L 4 - Mackin qualified (L to Lapentti in R1), Marray reached FQR, Boggo/Bloomers/Baker out in QR1

2006: 5 played - W 0 L 5 - Big Arv/Aucks/Del/Bloomers/Marray all out in QR1

2005: 5 played - W 2 L 5 - Boggo & Big Arv reached QR2, Del/Marray/Mackin out in QR1

2004: 2 played - W 1 L 2 - Boggo reached QR2, Big Arv out in QR1

No Stinking 1st rd's there, Yes Boggo got a seed, but at least its a low one, who seems mainly to play on clay so he has a chance. and i'd expect him to be better than both his rd 2 opponents, (assuming confident boggo is back)

Slabba may well find it tough with the top seed in the 2nd rd if he makes it.
the seeds in Josh section look quite tough too.

Hopefully for Boggo and josh the 1st two matches will be long one so they get to play as late in the afternoon as possible.

according the BBC the max Temp on Tuesday is 37C!! Wednesday seems a bit cooler tho.
