Week 23 - Wimbledon Qualifying WC Play-Offs
Permalink  

This is due to start tomorrow, and if previous years are anything to go by information will by very difficult, if not impossible to get hold of.  The usual format is a 16-player draw, with both finalists getting a QWC, making the final of the play-off completely pointless.  We probably won't even find the draw until most of the matches have been completed but maybe we could work it out from various twitter updates?

I thought it was due to start on Tuesday, though I'm sure you're right about how hard it will be to glean information about it.

Not according to this link http://www.wimbledon.org/en_GB/about/guide/eventguide.html

It does say WCs will be announced on Tuesday, but not sure whether that's for the main draw or qualifying, but by then it should be obvious since it will be who isn't in the play-off.

Yeah, I've found lasts year's draw http://www.lta.org.uk/Global/Downloads/Results/2009/Wimbledon%20Wild%20Card%20Play%20Offs/Mens%20singles%20.pdf

We never did learn about that pre-pre qualifying that Cavaday must have lost in!

I've sent a DM to Anna Fitz on Twitter and asked her to tweet some scores. Her tweet suggests it starts on Tuesday, but that might be just her matches.

Sorry but that's shocking that Evo has to go through the wildcard play-off, lta have been so strict this year, they give no hope to our players whatsoever

I was assuming that Inglot would be unavailable due to being in Queens doubles. That line-up is un-confirmed, just guesswork on the knowledge Arlidge was the last DA.

tough draw for evo really, lost to willbomb last week, but seriously, who here thinks rice is more capable of causing a stir than evo? just dont understand, they must have something against him, the desicion hasn't been made on tennis ability, evo won a challenger at 18!! that's clearly worth nothing now
