Boys & Girls: Loy Yang Traralgon International, Australia - Grade 1 (Week 3)


So far this year our girls have eclipsed the boys. Here's a chance for the boys to respond, with the top 4 ranked in action. Play starts on Sunday, but does not include Jonathan Cornish or Katy Dunne, who disappointingly lost their opening qualifying matches. Kyle and Liam look to have comfortable openers, but Josh and Luke have tougher opposition in prospect

Boys R1 (L64)

(Q) Alexander Babanine (AUS) v (7) Kyle Edmund (GBR)

Joshua Ward-Hibbert (GBR) v (14) Karim Hossam (EGY)

(WC) Christopher O'Connell (AUS) v (3) Liam Broady(GBR)

Luke Bambridge (GBR) v (WC) Jack Schipanski (AUS)

A mixed day down under. Very good win for Josh, but a poor defeat for Liam - his opponent has a modest junior record and his only ATP point was against an unranked Aussie

Boys R1 (L64)

(7) Kyle Edmund (GBR) d. (Q) Alexander Babanine (AUS) 6-4 3-6 6-2
Joshua Ward-Hibbert (GBR) d. (14) Karim Hossam (EGY) 7-6(4) 6-3
(WC) Christopher O'Connell (AUS) d. (3) Liam Broady (GBR) 6-3 6-3
(WC) Jack Schipanski (AUS) d. Luke Bambridge (GBR) 6-3 6-3

R2

Alexandre Favrot (FRA) v (7) Kyle Edmund (GBR)
(WC) Bradley Mousley (AUS) v Joshua Ward-Hibbert (GBR)

Some joy from Oz today:

R2

(7) Kyle Edmund (GBR) d. Alexandre Favrot (FRA) 4-6 6-3 6-0
Joshua Ward-Hibbert (GBR) d. (WC) Bradley Mousley (AUS) 4-6 6-4 6-2

R3

(10) Kimmer Coppejans (BEL) v (7) Kyle Edmund (GBR)
Mathias Bourgue (FRA) v Joshua Ward-Hibbert (GBR)

Kyle's next opponent took Oli to a final set tiebreak at Roehampton, and has 4 wins against Brits since then. Josh faces a tough task against a familiar French opponent, who bagged a Grade A title 2 years ago and currently has an ATP ranking just outside 800

Good to see Kyle finishing strongly - he's won his last nine 3 setters, which is a promising sign

End of story here as both doubles pairs surprisingly lost early. On to the big one.
