Courtesy of the ITF website. H2H Fitzy is 0-1 having lost to Eros in Nigeria 2 and 4 in 2010. A different player nowadays though, obviously

George and Fitzy in the Semis would be nice.

James Allemby lost in QR2, Ashley through to FQR.

L32: George Morgan WR 709 v Gilad Ben Zvi (ISR) WR 851 (CH 600 in 2010)

H2H 0-1 in both cases, Fitzy as described in the last post and George in juniors - Ben Zvi beat him in 3 sets at junior Wimbledon in 2008.

Re Steven's tweet and George's reply, I wouldn't be surprised if the ITF site was correct and George just can't remember playing Zvi. After all, a lot of us would be hard pressed to remember someone we saw 30 plus feet away 4 years ago.

Also, he may be correct in saying he didn't play at Wimbledon, but if this was played at Roehampton (or elsewhere) you can understand why he can't recall it.

Looks like this may all be irrelevant anyway as George won't be playing him this time either.  According to Flashscores, George has a walkover.

Re. the H2H - I dug a bit deeper (unfortunately you can no longer do this by clicking on the tournament on the H2H page because it always gives an error) and it turns out that it was a qualifying match, not a main draw match - far easier to forget, if indeed he did forget it.

Anyway, Ben Zvi has withdrawn but a lucky loser has been drawn in his place, and Ashley has qualified too

FQR: (q2) Ashley Hewitt WR 1111 beat Benjamin Ezer (ISR) UNR by 2 & 1

L32: George Morgan WR 709 v (LL) Eyal Cohen (ISR) WR 1606
L32: (q2) Ashley Hewitt WR 1111 v (4) Patrik Rosenholm (SWE) WR 410 (= CH)
L32: Andrew Fitzpatrick WR 704 v Tal Eros (ISR) WR 875 (CH 743 last Oct)

This explains why the match appeared briefly on Bet365 and then disappeared.

QF:  Ashley Hewitt & George Morgan WR 2338 vs (2) Antoine Benneteau & Axel Michon (FRA/FRA) WR 1437

Leading now 4-2 in the 2nd set and serving. LS has been stuck at 15-15 for a minute or three.
Now *15-30.

30-30, *30-40 and break point to Cupid, who takes it so it's back on serve in this set.

 

Come on Fitzy!!!
