It might be dry, but whether the courts are playable is another matter! I might get along tomoorow (monday) for the qualies but there are no viewing areas inddors
I went a few years back and had a look around inside (it was warm and sunny so play was outdoors!) and thought there was a high walkway above the indoor courts where you could watch? Perhaps they don't allow spectators as not much room?

Main draw wildcards to Neil Pauffley, Clay Crawford, Kyle Edmund and the unfortunate Luke Bambridge, who has second seed Alexandre Sidorenko. Clay draws James Ireland, giving a good opportunity for both
Could anyone explain (within 250 words, please) why Cox (of the Daniel variety) hasn't played for many weeks? I saw that he retired against David Rice in early March, so it's a bit worrying. Thanks.
