R1: (2) Josh Goodall WR 291 v Marcus Willis WR 590 R1: (q) Matthew Illingworth v Ze Zhang WR 668 (CHN) R1: David Rice v (q) Markus Eriksson WR 917 (SWE)
You can see it coming with Josh. Although he's not in the best form at the moment.
His game is very Huge Serve, Huge Forehand, some decent volleys.
Now this is ok for the guy on quick surfaces like grass. But on slow courts, you need to be able to do more with the ball and work points more. Im not criticising him but this is why he's not going to get past top 150, unless he can hit a lot of winners.
Marcus being left handed has it perfect with his nice loopy crosscourt topspin forehand just keeping it on Josh's backhand before he gets a short ball i presume.
Good win for Willis but it's not the kind of match that Josh should be losing and this trip for him just hasn't worked out the way he would have hoped.
Hopefully Marcus can take advantage of his win and pick up some good points this week though.
