Bugby is up 3-0 early on agains Fitzy ... the bookies continue to make Fitzy the clear favourite though.

Tennisnow · Lower Club Player

Whittington (AUS) bt Marvin Barker 0&3, Sean Thornely bt Pulgar-Garcia (ESP) 46 64 76(10), Ed Corrie bt Neil Pauffley 61 46 63
Matthew short bt Chris Simpson 63 62, George Coupland bt Michael Look (AUS) 67(5) 63 62
Slabinsky beat Mitchell 6-2, 6-4

Huge result from Coupland, wiping out the number 2 seed!

Gary Denton · Intermediate Club Player

Are they playing on the grass this week, finally?

Fitzy lost to Miles last time they met, so maybe he has found a bogey player. Hope not!

So do I, but he's just dropped the first set by 3-6. cry

Miles must have the Indian sign on him: he took the second set by 6-4 & with it the match! bleh

Gary Denton · Intermediate Club Player

and the second 4-6

Well played, Miles.

The Magician Santoro · Top national player

After picking up just 4 points in the 1st 10 weeks of the season, Fitzy then picked up 46 points in the next 10 weeks. Since Week 20 he has only picked up 3 points.

Jack Buxton · Club Coach

judging by a tweet from Josh, Tom Burn might have turned in another win !!

philwrig · Hall of fame

He did 7-6 1-6 6-3

The Magician Santoro · Top national player

Top half wide open, no idea who would be favourite to make the final now.

Tennisnow · Lower Club Player

Well you would think the Mexican, Sanchez, might be a threat. But with a quick check of form he doesn't pose any real threat. He has lost 12 of his last 14.

Tom Burn looks all set to get to the quarters at least if not further, after beating Whittington just two weeks ago he should beat him again.

RJA · Hall of fame

Going by Goodall's tweet the courts are a joke.

Can anyone recall the last time that the top 4 seeds all lost in the first round of a tournament?

Did Evo lose too?
In Felixstowe's defence (though I realise it won't be any consolation to the players and it isn't really a decent axcuse anyway), they have had to step in at the last moment because the courts at Frinton were waterlogged.
