QR1: Darren Walsh WR 1671 v Timur Goryunov (UZB) UNR
A ridiculously weak qualifying draw for a Challenger (apart from a late entrant top seed) - Darren plays one of quite a few players on the draw who have never even played Futures qualifying before as far as I can tell and the two seeded players in his section are ranked 467 and 556 - the last two Q seeds are ranked outside the top 1200!

I imagine Darren's appearance in the singles qualies means that he & Adham, who unfortunately faces the q5, Alexander Kudryavtsev (whose doubles partner, Mikhail Elgin, is the q7!), will feature in the doubles. If so, I sincerely hope they have a better draw than they did this week. pray:
