Week 2 Futures - China F1 ($15k) - Mengzi (Hard)
Permalink  

Coxeh is the second seed here and plays the unranked 17 year old He Feng (or is that Feng He?) in the first round.

 

Milton plays Yao-Lun Chang of Taipei (ranked 1159 and 25 yo) in the first round.

The top seed is Ze Zhang (or is that Zhang Ze?), who took a set off Ljubo last year and has won rounds at Challengers, so he's quality.

 

For all this and many other intriguing snippets, you can click here - http://www.itftennis.com/mens/tournaments/drawsheetbyround.asp?tournament=1100023439&event=

 

Coxy and Milton could meet in the semis if they win their matches. I guess the last time they both played anywhere near China was in the finals of the G4 in Taipei before Osaka Mayor's in 2006. Coxy won a three setter on red clay.

Brits going out of doubles while still in singles instead of the other way round - unheard of! LOL (and something it would be nice to see more often)

Clearly need much more doubles practice if they have any aspirations to ever add to our top 100 double players.  Obviously lack of focus   wink

Milton is on livescores on bet365 and leads 6-3 3-0.

He won, think the 2nd set was a bagel. Looks in good form and hopefully will be a close match in the semis if Cox can join him.

Very good spot Josh smile.gif and a very good win too. I wonder how bet365 are managing to get hold of these live scores - i.e. if the ITF has done something or if bet365 are supplying the equipment to the tournaments.
