weird that his next opponent is ranked 364, but has only once got past the r16 of an itf once, this is his second time, and almost all his tournaments are grade 4, 5, and he has played a hell of a lot of them. looks like his doubles ability has got him where he is

BAMBRIDGE, Luke defeated (10)STROBEL, Trey 4-6 6-2 6-1

Another good win for luke, his 3rd G4 semi, hopefully it will be 3rd time lucky for him. Next match is against a 14 year old unranked qualifier who has deafted the 16th, 2nd, and 5th seeds. Could be dangerous, weird he wasn't given a WC considering he's american and seems to have so much promise.

Btw, Luke will be in the top 500 when the rankings come out on monday

yeah him and edmund are options, edmund has got the better of luke in there two bigish meetings, and has a G4 title. So if luke does get one, kyle prob has the right to expect one aswell. Tbh i'd rather these two got one's, who have real potential, than a hewitt, allen, gabb ....

Another good win but G4 titles don't make a WC for Wimbledon. Another year for me.

what about winning Eddie Herr U14s? Broady got a WC last year based on winning the European U14 Masters

Ok its G4, but don't be too fooled, in them bambridge has beaten many top 200 players, and is surely earnt a crack at a top 100 player.

Probably. Its just we're pretty well known for expecting too much too soon and then butting the boot in to players in this country.

I'd prefer to see him next year.
