Sam Hutt makes another attempt to reach the top 100 while Jordan Angus looks to extend his 15 match ITF winning streak. All four Brits have favourable first round draws against locals.
R1 (L32)
(Q) Mohab Elzenaty (EGY) v (5) Sam Hutt (GBR)
Mohamed Ahmed Kamal Moawad (EGY) v Myles Orton (GBR)
My prediction proved mixed,: Sam losing disappointingly, but Myles gained a big upset against someone ranked top 50 until recently, and revenge for a defeat in South Africa earlier in the year.
R2
Mahmoud Zazou (EGY) d. (5) Sam Hutt (GBR) 6-3 6-3 Myles Orton (GBR) d. (4) Jeroen Vanneste (BEL) 6-2 6-3 Jordan Angus (GBR) d. Sherif Abohabaga (EGY) 6-2 6-2 (6) Vasco Mensurado (POR) d. Joshua Page (GBR) 6-4 6-4
QF
Myles Orton (GBR) v (7) Markos Kalovelonis (GRE) Jordan Angus (GBR) v (3) Arjun Kadhe (IND)
- and I expect 6-0 after tomorrow, but the other two are second favourites to progress
