Week 30 - Challenger ($125,000) - Astana II, Kazakhstan (Hard)


Very aggressive play from Kyle (Greg must be rubbing his hands in glee!) - the odd ball going into the stratosphere, admittedly (I assume it's still very windy - not go the sound on), but he's really setting about Kavcic, who has been virtually unbeatable in Challengers in recent weeks

*4-2 40-0

Unbelievable forehand winner gave Kyle 0-30 in that game but Kavcic hangs on.

Kyle leads *3-2

Hope that game doesn't affect Kyle. Wasn't sure about the line-call but can't have been nice for a potential 40-0 going to 30-15, soon to lose the game. *3-2

Nearly there. This would be the biggest challenger win yet if Kyle can serve the game out.

Winner players Berankis in the semi finals

A career best win for Kyle (in ranking terms - by 1 place - and probably performance terms too)

QF: Kyle Edmund WR 267 beat (2) Blaz Kavcic (SLO) WR 81 (CH 68 in 2012) by 3 & 4

SF: Kyle Edmund WR 267 v (3) Ricardas Berankis (LTU) WR 141 (CH 67 in 2013)

Edit: Kyle should be up into the 220s now.
