Week 32 Futures - Austria F3 ($10k) - Bad Waltersdorf (Clay)
Permalink  

(6) Joshua Milton (GBR) WR 745 vs. Daniel Geib (AUT) WR 1162
(7) James Feaver (GBR) WR 765 vs. (Q) Gibril Diarra (AUT) UNR

Milton has either the WR 1090 or an unranked player in R2; in fact, the only players in his quarter in the top 1000 are him and the other seed. Unfortunately, that's Ervin Eleskovic (SWE) WR 369, the top seed... Feaver has a decent R2 draw too.

From  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_spa_towns_in_Germany

"The word Bad is normally used as a prefix (Bad Vilbel) or a suffix (Marienbad, Wiesbaden) to denote that the town in question is a spa town. In any case, Bad as a prefix is an official designation and requires governmental authorization (which may also be suspended if a town fails to maintain the required standards)."

It's anything but a joke!  Your German can't be all that fluent if you don't know that Bad (pronounced with a long "a") is the German word for "bath" & that German & Austrian (& Swiss, for all I know) towns with Bad in their names (Bad Godesberg, Bad Mergentheim, Bad Ischl, to name but three) are places which were once Roman baths & are now, in all probability, spa towns.
