As against Simon at Eastbourne, Kyle showed he can live with top 20-30 players even at this stage of his career. Certainly not out of his depth. Exciting future indeed.

Stat of the match.

When DWH first posted the link, there were 28 people watching despite there being an Indian WC on court. Viewing figures for Kyle's match topped out at 171. Oh the power of the GB Tennis Forum

That's because...

a) hardly anyone in India cares about tennis
b) you can get all your non-FTA channels for about £4 (yep, economy of scale), so almost anyone who wants to watch tennis, can afford to watch tennis

Seems like a decent effort from young Kyle, as Bob says now time to get back to the day job, and bag those ranking points in challengers/futures.

I wonder if there is any chance of Kyle getting an Aussie Open qualifying WC. Hmm, probably not.

Probably off to the USA ( maybe via a stop off for a few days in the UK ) ready for the clay future in the week beginning 13/01.

Twitter follower @HowellSrh8 mentioned that there was a good article in the Indian press about Kyle's match, and I thinkj he must mean this one: http://bit.ly/1g0nVGj
