Good luck guys.

Chris lost the 1st set 2 breaks to 1 despite getting 78% of his 1st serves in (weirdly, he only won half the points when he did get it in, 60% when he didn't) but is an early break up in the 2nd.

3-6 *2-0

Looks as though it is:3-4*. I'm off.

I wasn't expecting Jamie to have much trouble here but I see Smith has been no. 1 in both singles and doubles in US college tennis (he finished uni last year), so may be a bit under-ranked.

4-6 *3-5
