Just a quick post to say well done to Dave.

It's quite gutsy what he's done - tried Challengers a year or two ago - failed - concentrated on doubles - given his singles another go . . .

Not only has he now got his singles career back up and going very well, but he's managed to juggle his doubles with it successfully.

And he's actually managed to earn a respectable 'salary', which is pretty rare amongst the singles players.

Good luck to him.

NB having been away and following results from afar, it's not worth clogging up all the other sites but Wardy's result was AMAZING, mega well done to Jo and Sam ,great work from Dan, well done Lloyd . . . and the doubles players too. What a week . .

No problem, happy to do them whenever I'm following matches anyway as I know people do often want to know what's happening but can't always access scoreboards

Dave just missed the top 400 today (another new career high though - 401) but should be certain to make it next Monday - 98 points is enough to get into the 380s in this week's list.

Thats right Steven, applaud averageness as ever. Celebrating or even bothering to mention someone and their potential to reach the top 380, that well known landmark?

I remember the btnet celebration when Josh Goodall first broke into the top 380.
