That's a touch ask . . .

Thomas has won the first set 6-4 against the WR 483 !

(But is now a break down in the second and I doubt that's the end of it . . .)

Allez, TC - you've had 15 (!) break points and only taken one - now's the time . .

Squeaky culo time for Thomas as we go into a 3rd set breaker.

Lost 7-6 (2) ... but nice work. Going to university evidently hasn't hurt his play. Does anyone know if he's planning to play generally this summer? Or is this a one-off?

Yes, well done, excellent score against a guy with that ranking.

I'm more and more convinced that the US college route is the best hope for most of our youngsters.

No idea about his summer plans - I was wondering if he has family in Italy (the Colautti surname ?) and so was just playing a bit while visiting family ?

Certainly looks like a fine effort.

Yes, CD, I'd wondered the same ...
