indiana · Tennis legend

Go Ross ! Probably GB No 2 if you win the tournament

That's actually quite an indictment on GB men's tennis

Ross' singles first up tomorrow at 3am BST.

Hutchins/Huss v Falla/Giraldo (COL/COL)

steven · Tennis legend

QR2: Ross Hutchins UNR lost to (q2) Tatsuma Ito (JPN) WR 176 by 1-6 6-2 6-1

We'd have been getting a bit excited after that 1st set had any of us been awake to follow it!

Smidster · Challenger level

Hutchins/Huss def Falla/Giraldo (COL/COL) 5-7 6-1 10-8

Probably the 2nd seeds Cermak/Mertinak up next

Stephen Huss and Ross Hutchins won 72 per cent of service points to edge past Colombians Alejandro Falla and Santiago Giraldo 5-7, 6-1, 10-8 in 79 minutes. Huss and Hutchins have a 1-2 record in ATP World Tour finals, picking up their lone title in September 2008 at the China Open in Beijing.

Thank goodness Hutch has a win under his belt. Was beginning to think he'd forgotten how to do it. wink

It will be the 2nd seeds in the next round: they had a comfortable win 3&2.

Ah, H & H together again. Does anyone know whether this is just really a one-off or anything more meaningful ?

Smidster · Challenger level

The pair will be on court at 7am tomorrow morning UK time but it doesn't look like it is a permanent partnership as he is 'single and available'

edit 2 - just to add from his twitter feed re Huss - Hey @EdEmond18 we r gonna play 3 tournaments up to the end of the year but not play permanently..that's the plan anyway!

Anyone else on the early shift today?

H/H level at 3-3 with both teams having won games from 0-40

Smidster · Challenger level

H/H break at the 7th time of asking and will serve for set

H/H 5*-4

Smidster · Challenger level

But they can't do it

5-5*

seagull · Hall of fame

Won the set 7-5, lost the next 6-1 and currently 4-1 down in the MTB
