I'm not sure he's seeded 5 in the main draw wink

Turns out Théo Fournerie is the son of Christophe Fournerie, who was Amélie Mauresmo's coach when she reached her first slam final (AO 1999) and was something of a specialist at losing to Brits - he had a 0-3 record in Challengers in the early-mid 1990s and 2 of the 3 losses were to Tim Henman and Jamie Delgado.

Théo is the (joint) second best 1997 boy in France (rankings just released). His mum was a pro too, ex No 22 in France, I think, which beats Dad who made it to French No 32.

But like most youngsters, his result sheet has a lot of ups and downs - David may well have a decent chance, especially as it's the first round for Théo.
