For those who like to remember our 'old timers', ex-WR 810 Kyle Brassington has beaten Peter Ashley, WR 1544, to make the BT final at Ilkley this week.
Where he will play Clay Crawford, WR 1690, who won against Harry Meehan when Harry had to retire in the first set.
Yet again, like last week, Harry Meehan has to retire - he played and won two matches though but stopped after losing the first set TB today in the semis at Tunbridge Wells
Well done to British US college players, Jordan Angus (q) and Ben Lott, who won the BT events this week in Tunbridge Wells and Newcastle, respectively.
Rob Carter takes on Richard Bloomfield in tomorrow's British Tour final at Paddington, which is a decent final for anyone in the area on a Saturday morning.
Isaac Stoute and Robbie Ridout were the two smei-finalists
Alex Ward is playing the BT event in Cambridge this week, along with Rob Carter, Oli Hudson, Harry Skinner, Alex Jhun - and (unfortunately) the 'pesky' German who won last week, Torsten Wietoska WR 694.
Ollie Hudson isn't too happy with his QF in Cambridge:
"Personal record for me...broken 7 times in a match and it was only 2 sets 😤 Also don't think I've ever been a break up 4x before and lost a set! #recordbreakingscenes"
He was playing 4th seed Alex Jhun, who won 7-6(3) 7-5. In the SFs, Alex plays unseeded Joe Woolley, who despatched the 'pesky' German 2nd seed in R2, while top seed Alex plays 3rd seed Rob in the other semi-final.
