Week 8 - Futures F2 ($15K) - Sarajevo, Boznia & Herezogovina

spud · Challenger qualifying

The site updates results regularly i think.

The top seed has been knocked about by Irishman James McGee.

So if Eaton can sneak past Olejniczak- things could get a little easier.

So far this seems to be a tournament for the underdog. Of the 8 results in so far, 6 have been won by the underdog (based on rankings only), and of the 5 seeds who have played, only 1 has made it through.

This includes Stoppini (247) losing to Raspudic a WC ranked 1738, and Juska (388) losing to a qualifier Dzumhur (1653).

Let's hope Dominic can keep the run going.

Shame- Was always going to be a big ask for Chris. Hopefully he can have some success on dubs court still this week and do well in Sarajevo quals next week

Of the 16 first round matches, 11 were won by the (rankings) underdog. confuse

Tough luck Inglot, 12-10 in the tiebreak must have knocked him. There the sets you really want.

Would they maybe play Cherbourg qualies if they went out of the doubles and then travel back for Sarajevo Quals?

Maybe not- worthless trip and wasted money if your out 1st round.

The top seeds gave a walk over in the dubs.

Eaton/Inglot got their revenge in the dubs from last week winning very easily. 6-4 6-1.

They then won their semifinal 6-1 6-2, so are into the final where their opponents are yet to be decided.

Would be nice for 1 title from the pair from the 2 weeks here. They are a solid team.

I would presume they could sneak into the Sarajevo challenger cut together for dubs.
