George Morgan appears to be the main hope within a British quintet in Kramfors

George doesn't seem to be progressing on the junior tour.
Not considering he appeared to be in the top few in his year when he won the Orange Bowl U14s. It does take boys longer than girls to progress in ITF Juniors, but even so the top 10 1993 Boys are now inside 200, and George is nowhere near that. One thing that puzzles me is that he rarely plays doubles, which is both useful for developing net skills as well as normally accounting for around 20% of most players' points.

I've seen George play and I was very impressed. Don't get too worried yet guys.
