if results are true morgan is on fire

Great from the boys.   Really good stuff.  3 of the last 16. wow.  Imagine if we had that at Wimbledon. haha. 
Maybe in 5 years time Morgan, Golding & Carpenter will be in the last 16 at Wimby. hehe.  or maybe it's really late I've gone a bit delusional.. hmmm

Anyhow in the L16...
- it looks like Golding's got Mitchell Frank (USA) (5) as he had a w/o.
- Morgan's got Sekou Bangoura (USA) (15) (assuming he beat Tom Allen).
- and Carpenter has either Mikelis Libietis (LAT) or Johannes Robert Van Overbeek (USA) both unseeded.

Frank lost to Carpenter last week.
Bangoura beat Golding last week.

They look more winnable than the last round to me.  Go on lads. Make it 3 in the quarters!

Jack plays Overbeek according to Thursday OOP.

Good stuff. Hope they all can keep going and rack up the big points.

5 players from a doubles altercation? how does that work?!?!

Brilliant results from the three Brits - maybe they really were inspired by playing in front of Muzza!

There's a very detailed report on the day at http://tenniskalamazoo.blogspot.com/2009/12/gibbs-and-tsay-oust-no-2-no-4-seeds-at.html, including:

"The heat index hovered around 90 degrees all day during the second round of the Orange Bowl, and the emotional heat index was even higher. Arguments with the chair umpires, racquet smashing, and wails of anguish could be heard all over the spacious Crandon Park grounds, and given the stress levels, it was composure that often won out over seeding.

Three British boys, no doubt inspired by a visit to the grounds by world No. 4 Andy Murray, scored three big upsets in the 18s, with qualifier George Morgan defeating No. 3 seed Kevin Krawietz of Germany 6-4, 2-6, 6-4, Jack Carpenter putting out No. 4 seed and Eddie Herr finalist Marton Fucsovics of Hungary 7-6, 1-6, 6-1 and Oliver Golding coming back to beat No. 9 seed Tiago Fernandes of Brazil 6-7, 6-1, 6-4."

... and later on:

"And now the details on the Tuesday night incident that led to the defaults of five players. I was not on site at the time, but back at the hotel working on my Eddie Herr recap, so this is information that I've gathered from conversations with those who were there, or who had accounts from the U.S. players themselves. If there are any eyewitnesses who wish to correct what I've heard, or dispute it, please leave a comment below.

Campbell Johnson and Shaun Bernstein of the U.S. were playing doubles together in Tuesday night's first round of matches, as were Victor Baluda and Richard Muzaev of Russia, against other opponents. When darkness necessitated that each of their matches be moved to a lighted court, both teams arrived at the same court, and apparently words were exchanged about who belonged there. The Russians said they would see the Americans after their match to settle things, and when Johnson and Bernstein finished (both teams won), the Russians were waiting for them. More words were exchanged, but Johnson said he was not going to get involved, telling the Russians they were lucky he was still in the tournament, or else he would take up the fight. As Johnson walked away, he heard footsteps behind him, and as he turned, he was kicked in the chest and hit in the face. Rodney Carey of the Bahamas entered the fray to help Johnson, who did not fight back, but did use profanity and was heard threatening to kill the Russians.

The police were called, and the tournament referee Brad Taylor defaulted the five players from the tournament. There was no official statement or announcement by Taylor or the USTA staff; the only information given was that the players were thrown out of the tournament for an off-court altercation. Johnson, Baluda and Muzaev were all still in singles; their opponents were notified of the defaults this morning, and their doubles opponents were also given wins due to defaults."

Finally, here are all of the day's GB boys' U18 results and R3 draws:

What really impresses me the most are the final set scores which shows they were dominating their matches at the end augurs well for the matches today. On paper dare I say it today's matches look easier.
