Week 18 Futures - Great Britain F6 ($10K) - Edinburgh
Permalink  

Cox and Illingworth are at the bottom of the list of DAs here, while Milton and Arlidge are at the top of the Alt list, so will probably get into the main draw too.

It says at http://www.lta.org.uk/Resources/Competition/2009%20Wild%20Card%20Process%20-%20Men.pdf that wild cards should appear on http://www.lta.org.uk/Competition/Resources/?c=comp-wildcard by the Friday before the tournament, but this hasn't happened for Edinburgh and didn't happen for Bournemouth either, so it's anybody's guess who will get them.

The qualifying draw should have been posted on Saturday too, but there's no sign of it on the ATP, LTA, ITF or TE sites. I wonder if that's an oversight or means that with so many Futures on next week, there aren't enough entrants for qualifying to require more than one round ...

Alright guys hows it going?

Draw was not completed till very late last night because they had a 'problem with a player'
no idea what they are talking about to be honest.

I havent seen the draw as im not going to down the club for a few hours.

I think im seeded and the person im playing has got a bye aswell, so either its luck, or there are only two rounds of qualis as i didnt see many people there yesterday.

Thanks Paul....obviously a fairly late decision in going here otherwise he would be a DA. Should be seeded if he makes the MD.

Still no draw anywhere...emailed to see when it will be published.

Found this on the newly re-designed Tennisscotland web site...

Potential Grand Slam stars of the future, from across the globe ,head to Edinburgh this weekend for the AEGON Pro-Series, Edinburgh as qualifying gets underway on Sunday 3rd May.

Scottish interest in the Womens Singles centres on Dunblane teenager Katie Gater, who has been awarded a wild card into the main draw, while 15 year old Morven McCulloch, a pupil at the Tennis Academy, has been given a wild card into the qualifying event.

Top seed in the Womens Singles is the British number 10 Naomi Broady (Cheshire) ahead of Hollands Bibiane Schoofs, the world number 423.

In the Mens Singles, Spanish players occupy the top two spots with Guillermo Alcaide seeded to meet Guillermo Olaso in the final. The British quartet of Dan Cox, Josh Milton, Marcus Willis and Oliver Golding have been given wild cards into the main draw.

British Number 5 Dan Evans, who was recently tipped by Andy Murray as being a potential star of the future, has been awarded a wild card into the qualifying event.

If my memory serves me right, the draws from Edinburgh were not uploaded for ages in 2007 AND in 2008? hmm.gif The Search feature is down, so I can't confirm.

I'm sort of sure of 2007. The excuse was that the computer wasn't working, I think (although that assumes Edinburgh has only one computer, which can't be true).




Good to see Evo thump TBC. smile.gif

And it's strange that Evo doesn't get a wild card. Cox is a direct entrant now, so that frees up a spot...

Thanks Fitzy for the info and to Drew for his valiant attempt to construct the draw from it!

I assume Evo only decided to enter qualifying at the last minute and that's why he didn't get a WC.
