just like to add a quick note that nikki roenn last night was involved in a 4 and half hour match which was finished in the freezing cold under flood lights. Epic match where is had match points but just could convert. Guy was a hook as well. tough loss. great effort. 400 players at the tennis centre and no practise courts, makes it very difficult. raining at the moment so will be a delay today

Terrible draw for Matt Short. Tavares been to two challenger finals. This after playing Machado last week.
Indeed, Tavares has been as high as WR 186 (in 2010), but ...

QR3: (q3) Matt Short WR 752 v David Catala Juan (ESP) UNR
Catala Juan is a 14-year-old and has just managed his first back to back wins in Futures qualies for the loss of just 4 games. However, Matt is shown as in the FQR which suggests Catala Juan may have withdrawn, but it doesn't say w/o underneath ...

5 FQR matches still aren't complete. They are hoping to complete those, finish off the draw and get R1 played tomorrow. Good luck with that .,. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2268339
