The Belgian should provide strong opposition, being ranked just outside 50 having already won one Grade 2 event. Robert and Toby play tomorrow
A good day with Toby creating an upset over someone in the top 100 as well

Sadly a wipeout today - not surprising, but the scorelines are disappointing

luke and rob also lost doubles 2 and 0, not being funny but i think luke was getting better results 6 months ago, definetly more encouraging atleast than right now. Edmund seems well ahead at this stage

yeah, and he got beaten 6-0 6-0 by fitzy (although fitzy said he played amazing), still would have expected him to get on the board at least.
