L32: (6) Oli Golding WR 362 lost to Frederico Ferreira Silva (POR) WR 593 (= CH) by 1 & 0
At least, I assume that was the final score - that would mean 13 games were played, while ITF livescores says 14 games were layed and the final score was 5-1 6-0, i.e. 12 games - the latter has to be wrong though!

Wow that's a disappointing scoreline. I know oli has played a lot of matches in a short amount of time but surely he should be putting up more of a fight than that?
(1) Mr Golding played a ridiculous number of matches towards the end of last week, clearly being exhausted by the time he was finished. (2) Ferreiro Silva is a good player. There may be other factors, too, but those two would be sufficient in and of themselves.
