Week 9 - USA F6 ($15,000) - Harlingen, TX (Hard)


(already uses new rankings)

L32: Dan Cox WR 566 v Bjorn Fratangelo (USA) WR 472 (= CH)
L32: (6) Josh Milton WR 386 v Qualifier

The winners meet in R2 and are in the same quarter as top seed Herbert, one of Dan's scalps last week.

2011 Roland Garros boys' champion Fratangelo is 19-4 in US Futures this year - R2 loss to Boggo, SF loss to Ginepri, whom he then beat on his way to winning the title against de Greef, whom he then lost to in the Final the following week before reaching going out in the QFs to Vesely last week.

Rotten draw for Mr Cox, but not an impossible one.

I fear the most likely way to avoid a double Brit bash here would be for Josh to get upset in R1 again. Still, where there's life, there's hope!

Shocker, Dan and Josh facing seeds in the QF LOL. Presumably preferable to seeds 1 and 2.

2 break points each in the 1st set (all 4 of them converted) - Josh is making heavy weather of a match I wasn't really expecting any trouble from and is 0-30 down serving to stay in the set at *5-6.

15-40 - 2 set points for Santiago ...

To make things worse, Josh was 5-3 up in the 1st set before losing 8 games in a row

However, he has just got one of the breaks back to end that run - 5-7 *1-4
