Boys: Perin Memorial, Croatia - Grade 1 (Week 38)


One of the few opportunities for our top boys to win big points before the North American finale in November/December sees Tom Farquharson and Chris Simpson in the main draw (I think Liam Broady lost in qualifying, but I haven't seen any results from that).

R1

(LL) Tomas Prokop (CZE) d. Tom Farquharson (GBR) 6-2 6-1
Christopher Simpson (GBR) d. (Q) Ciprian Alexandru Porumb (ROU) 6-3 6-4

R2

Christopher Simpson (GBR) v (2) Jozef Kovalik (CZE)

A big test for Chris against someone in the top 50 on the Czech's favourite surface

Liam lost in the final round of qualifying, and all three boys exited in the first round of doubles

Apologies for missing one very important change to the drawsheet yesterday. Liam has repeated Mel South's trick from Los Angeles last year. A seed given a bye into round 2 withdrew and Liam took full advantage for his best points haul to date:

R2 additional

(LL) Liam Broady (GBR) d. Antun Pehar (CRO) 7-5 6-0

R3

(12) Richard Muzaev (RUS) v (LL) Liam Broady (GBR)
