Josh romps away with the first set by 6-1.

Alex Ward has tweeted the informative "Tough" - which could mean he lost or, hopefully, that he won but it was a lot harder than expected.

All results from LTA so far:

Pavic bt Edmund 6-4, 6-7 (5) 6-3
Pel bt Ward 7-6 (3), 3-6 ,7-6 (6)
Evans bt Roelofse 2+3
Bettink bt Iannuzzi 3+4.
Short bt Berman 7-6 (2), 7-5
Eaton bt Fitzpatrick 4+4
Look bt Thornley 4+4
Rice bt Salisbury 6-3, 4-6, 7-6 (4)

Meanwhile WC James Marsalek has won the first set 7-6 against (3) Fabrice Martin (FRA)

Thats a fairly good win for Short, against an opponent near his CH. Berman, Born in South Africa, lives in Melbourne, represents the USA!
Bit of a shocker from Alex W tho

That's Bettink's first point, in his 14th tourney of the year!

Goodall wins 6-1, 6-3

I tweeted the LTA last week about no scores coming from Ilkley or indeed generally anywhere., bit it made sod all difference and met with sod all response      ( although coincidentally or otherwise I do remember scores appearing last year somewhere very soon after I commented to them )

Apparently nothing was happening involving British players between Wimbledon and the Davis Cup 

That seems so much better today, but so wish they could be relied upon.  It's when you hope or even expect some service and nout is provided that it becomes soo frustrating.

 It sounds like the LTA is run by GEMs!

Marsalek won....very well done
