Poor Dave looks like he's getting a bit beaten up by the jazzy Tunisian - 4-0* . . . . and finally, with a fair bit of difficulty, holds serve. So 4*-1 and now he's on the board . . .

Unfortunately he got broken back. He then got to 15-30 as Jaziri served to stay in the set but the Tunisian held on. I do hope he at least gets a set to show for this but clearly it's not going to be easy.

And Dave wins his game so forcing, at least, a TB (and the chance to break for the set). Vamos . . .

Josh just starting against Gojowczyk. I fear we're in for ritual slaughter here but I would absolutely love to be proved wrong!

The German leads 6-4 2-0*, so nothing like a ritual slaughter, I'm happy to report, but still not looking too good.

The win against Garanganga was fantastic news and hopefully it means that Josh has turned a corner. Wouldn't expect much from today's match but hopefully something to build on for next week.

L32: (Q) Dave Rice WR 380 lost to Malek Jaziri (TUN) WR 190 (CH 69 in 2012) by 6-2 7-6(3)
L32: (Q) Josh Milton WR 451 lost to (5/WC) Peter Gojowczyk (GER) WR 146 (=CH) by 4 & 1

At least they had a go instead of sticking with Futures ... and got 5 points each for qualifying.

I suspect Josh's 5pts may have been more than he would have got playing GB futures.... A worthwhile trip

Incredible!  J & J were 2-4* down in second set, yet managed to turn it round, only to lose the tie-break by 4-7! disbelief  Squeaky culo time! hmm
