One Brit in a very sparse qualifying draw - a good chance for Morgan to build on his recent good form:

QR1: (q6) Morgan Phillips WR 1271 v Joan Benaiges Blasco (ESP) UNR

Winner to play (10) Cristian Rodriguez (COL) WR 1447 or Massimiliano Costa (ITA) UNR in the FQR.

Morgan's also in the doubles, playing with yet another unknown (to me) Aussie, Andrew Thomas.  They're unranked & have unfortunately, in theory, drawn the Brazilian fourth seeds, Diogo Cruz & Rodrigo-Antonio Grilli (WR498).  Morgan, of course, beat Grilli in the singles after the latter retired, having lost the first set 4-6, so unless he's made a miraculous recovery, Morgan & Andrew could well end up facing an alternate pair... pray.gif

Good win for Morgan, even if it was by retirement, and another ranking point won't go amiss.

Villagran is a decent player, but hopefully Morgan can give him a good match (and I'm sure he's played against him in the not too distant past, but Steven will probably have a better memory of that!)
