Cox and Edmund should be in the main draw here. Golding was on the alternate list but it looks like he has just missed out and obviously didn't have time to get there for qualifying

QR1: Sean Thornley UNR v Tristan Tringali (AUS) UNR

I assume Sean is playing doubles here but no idea who with.

QR1:  Sean Thornley UNR defeated Tristan Tringali (AUS) UNR by 0 & 0 in a fraction over 42 minutes! smile

A step up in QR2:  Franko Miocic (CRO/WR 1254) or, more likely, the q8, Ariel Behar (URU/WR 886).

His doubles partner in Todi this week, the Filipino, Ruben Gonzales, is also in qualies.  They pushed the third seeds pretty close in the first round, so perhaps they'll give it another go here.

Don't know if it's my place to do this but I'm waiting for a tardy taxi and had some time to check out the draw.

L32: Kyle Edmund WR 320 v Janez Semrajc (SLO) WR 262
L32: Dan Cox WR 214 v Laurynas Grigelis (LTU) WR 247

Dan is drawn to meet 6th seed David Guez in the L16 and Kyle to meet 4th seed Adrian Menendez-Maceiras.

Not bad draws for either of them. Grigelis is handy on quick hard courts, beat Ed Corrie in three tight sets earlier this year.

Don't know much about Semrajc.

Hopefully we see Kyle play a more sensible schedule for the rest of the year and get his ranking up gradually.

Would be nice to see him top 200 by the end of the year

I'm glad that Kyle is also down for the Poznan 35k Qualies the week after. Hope he can pick up some points!
