QR1: Oliver Golding WR 1156 v Arnau Dachs (ESP) WR 1281
QR1: Philip Barlow WR 1260 v (wc) Adam Sanjurjo Hermida (ESP) UNR
QR1: Ashley Hewitt WR 1268 v Marko Mijacevic (CRO) WR 1225
QR1: Jack Carpenter WR 1076 v (q10) Javier Samper-Montana (ESP) WR 828
This is going to be tough to qualify from - I don't think I've ever seen a 10K Futures qualifying draw with more than 50 world ranked players in it before! All of the 16 qualifying seeds are ranked in the top 950.

QF: (WC/4) Guillermo Alcaide & Nikolai Nesterov (ESP/RUS) WR 1096 "defeated" Matteo Marrai (ITA) & Morgan Phillips WR 1398 by a walkover (*)
QF: Giorgio Portaluri & Juan Pablo Villar (ITA/ARG) WR 1343 lost to (3) Laurent Rochette (FRA) & Alex Slabinsky WR 940 by 3 & 2
SF: (3) Laurent Rochette (FRA) & Alex Slabinsky WR 940 vs (2) Carlos Poch & Mark Vervoort (ESP/NED) WR 883
(*) Wonder if that walkover was "diplomatic", given that both Morgan & Matteo are still in the singles. Hope so, anyway. That said, the Spanish top seeds, Agustín Boje & Pablo Martín, also had a walkover in their QF & then proceeded to give one to Alcaide & Nesterov in the SF! Slabba & Rochette are doing all the hard work!
QF: Morgan Phillips WR 494 defeated (2) Laurent Rochette (FRA) WR 360 by 6-3 5-7 7-5
SF: (Q) Taro Daniel (JPN) WR 861 vs Morgan Phillips WR 494
* Yet another banana skin alert!
I think it was Rodrigues he beat. Broady had enough for Taro Daniel the other week so Morgan should be able to pull through.
Cracking win over the 2nd seed
Yes, JL, indeed it was. Must've got carried away in the excitement & confused him with Morgan's doubles partner & compatriot! Reassuring comment on Daniel, though. Still keeping my fingers firmly crossed...
