I thought I remembered a Vladimir Karpets, but he's a cyclist! It suggests the name exists in Russian though, so maybe one day ...

Looks like we have all been "floored" by this one.

There's a Diana Rugg on the senior circuit and of course hundreds of Matt's but "Carpets"??????????????????

I'm sure I've heard of a player named Berbatov.

I wonder if the "carpet" can be found across the two names? There's no tennis player called Oscar Petrov, I suppose?

Too bad that Jack Carpenter didn't make a typo whilst registering himself.

Hmmm. Closest I could get was CARly PETit. But Jo Dur[r]ie is actually quite close on the carpet front, as well as for hard courts.

Saying of my mother's (no doubt an old Yorkshire saying: "All the world save thee and me is a little mad, and even thee's a little mad"

Actually I think the original was "queer" but that has a different connotation these days!

 Guilty as charged, m'lud! But it was good fun. Thanks, Salmon, for the inspiration.

Myles Orton has taken the 1st set against Lewis Burton 6-2 - a possible upset brewing

Jathan Malik is holding his own against Dan Cox 5-5

James Marsalek has handed out a 1st set breadstick to David Porter

Bloomers has taken the 1st set off Manuja 6-4

First set to Dan Cox 7-5. He's won all his Futures tournaments despite often struggling through service games and/or having to recover multiple breaks. Today is another example. I know he's not a tall man, but how good would he be with a strong serve on top of his obvious very competent game off the ground?

Cannot make out Lewis. I thought he would kick on from last week.

Would like to see a few new GB faces picking up wins and points this week. Hope Ed Corrie has a good week.

I wish.  But I am pretty sure Dan won both of those matches.
