That's Rafa and Nole length ... LOL


Well not having ball boys does slow the game down a bit at this level but Samm does tend to take his time between points.

As with all good murder mysteries, I can now confirm that "the Butler did it".

Yes. Samm Butler comes from a set down to win in 3 sets 4-6 7-5 6-2

Last week's winner, Jack C is already *4-0 up

Some excellent results Just a couple of snippets to add to Bob's excellent summary. Firstly, it turns out that Samm saved a match point and won from a set and 3-5 down - he seems to have made a real breakthrough on this trip to Bulgaria Secondly, Jack has played Barrère once before, at Roehampton juniors 4 years ago, when the Frenchman won 6 & 3.
