Week 46 - Challenger ($50,000) - Champaign, IL, USA - Hard
Permalink  

Jamie Baker is a direct entrant here. The other two Brits are both seeded in the same qualifying section:

QR1: (q4) Alex Bogdanovic WR 322 v Alexander Domijan (USA) WR 742 (CH 541 in 2010)
QR1: (q7) Chris Eaton WR 354 v Lee Hsin-Han (TPE) WR 558 (CH 541 in Aug)

Boggo beat Domijan 7-6(3) 6-2 at Charlottesville qualifying 2 weeks ago.

Former world no. 172 Luka Gregorc also lurks in this section.

QR1: (q4) Alex Bogdanovic WR 322 beat Alexander Domijan (USA) WR 742 (CH 541 in 2010) by 0 & 3
QR1: (q7) Chris Eaton WR 354 beat Lee Hsin-Han (TPE) WR 558 (CH 541 in Aug) by 7-6(2) 6-3

QR2: (q4) Alex Bogdanovic WR 322 v Blaz Rola (SLO) WR 721 (CH 388 in 2010, 0-3 v Brits - Chris here & in Charlottesville last year and Dom)
QR2: (q7) Chris Eaton WR 354 v Luka Gregorc (SLO) WR 421 (CH 172 in 2009)

Gregorc has a weird record against Brits over the last 2 years:

2010 - he lost to Colin Fleming but beat James Ward
2011 - he beat Dan Smethurst and Jamie Baker but lost to Marcus Willis

L32: Jamie Baker WR 284 v Qualifier

The bad news is that if he wins, Jamie could meet his Knoxville QF and SF opponents a round earlier than he did there, i.e. Russell is likely to await in R2 and Baker is in the same quarter.

Chris lost in straights, 7-6(0) in the 2nd. Not been the best trip for him points wise, very little doubles action either.

Good find so "Treat" is pronounced "Trett" - that'll spoil our puns!

got so used to have live scores at challengers now, it's like being back in the old days waiting for sets to update, still i guess even that is a million times better than checking MTF/ATP for updates.
