After an impressive Wimbledon Tom Farquharson makes a rapid switch to clay, and is joined in the main draw by qualifier Ben Davis. Elisha Gabb is our only female entrant, who will be trying to arrest a long series of main draw defeats.
Boys R1 (L64)
Tom Farquharson (GBR) v (WC) Leonhard Gerch (GER) Kalle Averfalk (SWE) v (Q) Ben Davis (GBR)
A good day at the Rot-Weiss Berlin Club (which used to stage one of the top WTA events) saw all three win their singles, and Elisha progress in doubles (Ben and Tom joined up but lost). In the second round Tom meets the brother of last year's Wimbledon junior finalist
Boys R1 (L64)
Tom Farquharson (GBR) d. (WC) Leonhard Gerch (GER) 6-4 6-1 (Q) Ben Davis (GBR) d. Kalle Averfalk (SWE) 7-6(4) 6-3
R2
Tom Farquharson (GBR) v (7) Micke Kontinen (FIN) (Q) Ben Davis (GBR) v (10) Dominik Wirlend (AUT)
Girls R1 (L64)
Elisha Gabb (GBR) d. (Q) Adel Arshavskaya (RUS) 6-4 6-0
A real return to form from nowhere for Elisha, who registers her first Grade 1 QF to move back into the top 200. The Quarterfinal will be a big test though, against a young German girl who has reached the final of her last 3 Grade 1 or 2 events.
R3
Elisha Gabb (GBR) d. Anezka Makovickova (CZE) 7-5 6-2
