RE: Week 2 - Futures F1 ($10K) - Plantation, FL, USA - clay


A good win for Morgan again and nice to see him runaway with that third set.

Jenkins should be beatable on clay, but he is a solid player with a good serve and forehand who sort of flirts with challengers but never quite makes his mark (actually he is a very, very similar player to Josh Goodall).

Morgan Phillips marches on.

Has to be a Davis Cup shoe-in on clay

Good to see Morgan pick up another win over a decent player and a good chance of going further as well given that Scoville is not at his best on a clay court.

Not sure yet whether he would be a Davis Cup shoe-in for a clay court tie given that most of his wins have been against lower ranked players (not his fault given that he has had to play futures for the last year) but if he win this kind of match against top 300 players then his case will be strengthened.

YES! Great result for Morgan, and a convincing scoreline too. He has a great shot at winning this tournament now.

Amazing win for Morgan, especially once you take the scoreline into account biggrin - can he get revenge for Dan and make it a Paire of seeds taken out?

He's certainly doing well, johnnylad.

But no Davis Cup shoe-in for me.  In fact, Id myself still go for Ward and Baker on clay.

Looks like Ward was unlucky to run into Mirnegg so early as well
