That 3-3 for Tom seems to have been there for the last 10 minutes. Can't see the match on Bet365 either. ??

4-4 for Harry

3-0 for JWH but only 1 break of serve

Hmm just scanning down this trying to keep track of what's been going on - too many matches all at once!
I'll just come back later when the results are neatly in one post!!

And, yes, good to hear from Fitzy again!

Would you believe the ITF draw sheet is showing the result the other way round!

It's not often they get it wrong on the drawsheet, but the livescores win for Fitzy is confirmed by his own tweet: "Dusted off my match play and good to win and compete."

Sorry bob I think I'm going to shaft you on your predictions. My bad. I'll buy you a San Miguel

De Loore beat Harry 3&4

The Tom Allen match has now disappeared altogether from the ITF scores.

JWH breaks again to win the 2nd set 6-2. Another nail biter in prospect ?

I'm tea total so I'll settle for an Orange Juice and a win this week wink

Have fun tomorrow. And if the "Bomb's" serving stats are anything to go by today, don't forget your crash helmet and chest pads.

Looks unlikely, JWH up 5-0

Looks like Oli's lack of fitness and matches are kicking in.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Four matches are now showing which means that Tom's match and the non-UK match with Nicolas R. must both have finished.

Tom's match is due on next as Oli v JWH has just finished. Nicolas R's match should have been played unless there was a retirement/walkover.

I meant Tom Allen's match - it was 3-3, got stuck for ages and then disappeared. Nicolas R's match also got to 1-0 or close and then did the smae thing. So I'm assuming both of those did get finished, one way or another.

OK sorry - too many Tom's...

Aren't there just . . .

And we won't even go into the Dan s and Josh s. . . .

Meanwhile, Myles is 4*-3 up against Clay (good names, only one each of those ones!) and Jathan has lost the first set 6-4. That's ALL the foreigners winning - unless Tom Allen has managed to pull off something surprising . ..

Yes. Not one of my better predicitions. At least Oli managed to get on the board before Josh finished him off 6-1.

Well played JWH. And great to just see Oli playing again.
