Hmmmm... remember a future in Greece a couple of years back. Any since then?

My immediate thought was that it must have been that Final in Greece too but what with all the BOTB problems (and trying to catch up on real work this weekend), I haven't had time to check yet.

Yes! Well done to Boggo and Dan S. Justify's playing 10ks in the US, no?


I still feel it was a good decision by Boggo.  It didn't look so clever last week with an earlier exit but making a final on clay, getting matches under his belt, a bit like a footballer dropping a division by going out on loan.......dosen't always work but it's a genuine attempt to shake things up a bit.

"Already a better result for Smetty than when these two met at Queens last summer. He leads 2-1*."

Pretty close so far.  Would like to see Smethurst take at least a set.

yeah does seem close, could still go either way, you might think Alex will feel better being more used to finals etc (pus his great record vs brits), but then he'll also have the pressure of being the fav.

As requested, Smethurst fighting back...

"Nice crowd on hand for this final, by the way - about 50 or so people. Good to see. Smetty breaks to 2-0 in 2nd."

boggo does seem to have a habit of dropping his level at the start of 2nd sets, which is odd cause he normally starts 1st sets well

Smethurst in world-beating mode again, as I've seen glimpses of all week. Up 4-0. No way should this guy be ranked outside Top 400. And yet.

Woohoo, game on!

"Smetty completes the 2nd set sweep, breaking for a 3rd time to take it 6-0. Boggo goes off to change after this partial undressing."
