Marcus has recently had a new arrival, so will probably be out of matches for a few weeks.

In the women today:

DN1B

At Saint Gaudens, Eden played number one, against a not very well ranked team. She won her singles and doubles for the loss of only two games. And the team won 4-2 (No sign of Beth)

DN2

Ella lost in three tight sets, but against a player with the same ranking as the girl who Eden thrashed. As before, it's a struggle, given the ranking Ella's been given. It's always the way that the administrative rankings that the GB players get first time off is way too high. She lost her doubles too. The team drew 3-3.

DN3

Iman Garshong, playing two, has a very nice and easy win (albeit against a player not too highly ranked). She also won her doubles and the team drew 3-3.

In the men:

DN1B: Billy beat Maxence Bertimon in two sets. And won his doubles (playing with Adrian Bossel). Team won 6-0.

DN2 -

Richard Gabb won 6-4 in the third against JOHANSSON-HOLM JAKOB. Won his dubs too with Max Teixeira. Team drew 3-3.

Dan Cox, playing two won very easily for Ardres. Also won the dubs. Team drew 3-3

DN3 -

Tom Farqharson lost in two, and his dubs too. Team lost 1-5. Again, Capdenac's is not in yet.

DN4 -

Josh Goodall won both his matches comfortably enough. The team drew 3-3.

Neil Pauffley made rather heavy weather against a pretty low ranked opponent but won in three. He didn't play the doulbes but Giles Hussey did - unfortunately losing in a MTB. Team lost 2-4

New baby or not, Marcus did turn out for Capdenac today. But unfortunately lost in three sets to someone not that well ranked.

But Jack Carpenter won his.

In the dubs, Marcus+ won in the MTB but Jack+ lost in their MTB.

And the team lost 2-4

Has Marcus become a dad again ? If so, congratulations to him and Jenny.

Our girls mopped up in the top division that plays in spring

DN1B:

Beth played 1 for St Gaudens, and won easily. Eden played two and won even more easily. They played together in the dubs and won in a MTB and the team won 6-0

DN2

No sign of Ella and her team lost 1-5
Shelly Gerber played two and lost easily. The team lost 0-6

DN3

Iman didn't play this week

Add: just to add that Lucy Brown has been playing in Pre-Nats, twice this May. Tight matches both. Again far better opponents that most in the DN3, or even DN2 (because Lucy plays number 1, I think). But lost twice.

For the men:

DN1B:

Billy Harris started well but ended up losing in three to Lamine Ouahab, who is 35 or so now, but used to be ATP 114.
The team lost the four singles and then (my guess, based on the scores) split the doubles without playing them. So, lost 1-5

DN2

Rich Gabb lost in two to Matt Rodrigues, which is not a great result. But won his doubles, and the team drew 3-3.

Dan Cox lost in two to Filip Bergevi, who is ITF 234. Lost dubs too. Team lost 1-5

DN3

Tom's team won by walkover.
Jack Carpenter lost in two, and his dubs, and the team lost 0-6 (no Marcus)

DN4

Giles Hussey played number 1 for Dracenois, and won, singles and doubles, and team won 6-0.
Josh Goodall's result not in yet.

Lucy played for the third time this month today and won her singles 7-6 7-6, but lost her doubles with her lower-ranked partner.

Tx, the addict. I couldn't find today's so just posted the old ones from May. So glad she got a win, the other two were very close.

I don''t think the result would have been posted when you looked - it wasn't there a short while ago. BTW, that close loss of Lucy's on 1st May was three days after she ran the London Marathon.

Billy lost another heartbreaker, losing in the third-set tie-break against Yannick Jankovits. The two doubles were conceded so the team lost 2-4

DN2:

Rich Gabb lost 1&0 to VILLAGRAN Cristian, but won his doubles with Maxime Teixeira and the team drew 3-3

Dan Cox lost 7-5 7-6 to MUSITELLI François, but also won dubs, and team also drew 3-3

DN3

Tom Farq. won his singles 2 & 2. But lost dubs. Team won 4-2

DN4

Giles Hussey won in three sets. Dubs not played. Team won 5-1

*NB A lot of doubles weren't played today because it's the last day of the pool part, and so everyone knew what the points situation was and knew when they couldn't count for anything.
