Nice to see so many entries.

And, I guess, if I've understood the points system right, that's three pairs (minimum) who will end up with points and a ranking at the end of the tournament. Which is something to smile about.

Milts spent 3 days training with us after Aegon finals and with a decent draw should do well in Dublin

Not the strongest of draws.

Milts should easily get to the quarter final where Freddie is the likely opponent.

3rd bracket looks very weak and Jonny and Jathan have great chances to pick up big points

Ed should cruise through the bottom quarter.

First guy to the finishing line toady is Lucky Loser LL Scott Duncan, 6-4 6-1, against Aussie Q, Carson.

Well done Scott.

Second to make it is Ed, 6-3 6-1, against Adam TB

 

(Sorry, Bob, just a little echo down here . . .)

And a victory for Ben Stride which, I assume, is his first ranking point ever ?

Skalsky into a third against Théo F, but the frenchman a break up

Did Ben Stride make into a US University for Fall 2014 like he wanted to?

Now that's what I call quick revenge! (Scott lost to Carson in straight sets in the FQR yesterday)

Ben Stride's win does indeed get him his first ever ATP ranking point

Having picked up a career best scalp and his first ranking point last week, when he beat Rosenzweig in R1, Adam Skalsky has just gone even better, upsetting 6th seed Théo Fournerie (WR 767 - his first top 1000 scalp) 2-6 6-3 7-6(3)

He next plays Bruce Strachan, against whom he has a 2-0 H2H, both in straight sets.

Think so. Think he's off to Des Moines, Iowa to join the Drake Bulldogs

Really excellent result from Adam Skalsky !!!

AND that's make three out of three today, for our lads beating ye olde peskies . . . although maybe not fair to call Brendan a pesky as it's obviously his country :)

Pleased for Skalsky - I saw him play at Wirral and he looked quite decent, so i'm surprised he had never picked up points until last week. In fact I think he beat Bruce Strachan at Wirral.
That bottom quarter looks like a cakewalk for Ed now

Slightly surprised Keelan is struggling - a set and a break down
Milts is cruising at 4-0 up

This draw really is weak. Great chances for the lesser lights to pick up nice points.
