Boys: 26th International Tournament of Salsomaggiore, Italy - Grade 2 (Week 17)


After a feast of junior tennis over the Easter period there are very few British players in action this week (though several are playing in the combined $10K events at Bournemouth). This tournament offers the last opportunity for a Brit to gain direct entry to Roland Garros, though Ahmed El Menshawy will have to reach the final to be in with a chance. However the first seed he is likely to encounter is a Belgian who thrashed him in the Philippines earlier in the year.

R1 (L64)

(16) David Thomson (GBR) Bye
(12) Ahmed El Menshawy (GBR) Bye

R2

Yaraslav Shyla (BLR) v (16) David Thomson (GBR)
(WC) Bruno Semenzato (BRA) v (12) Ahmed El Menshawy (GBR)
