He's guaranteed a singles and doubles WC for Wimby worth £35K approx so why bother until then.


 

I'm fairly sure he won't be guarenteed one this year. Got one last year as he'd made 3rd round/helped win DC the year before

Agreed, Ward should not get a WC or anywhere near one.  Qualifying WC, yes maybe. Good idea for a new thread actually.

Congrats to him getting married, but point stays same, only a qualy wc and not main draw for Wim and Queens.

Congrats to him. I hope he can get his knee sorted out, as the articles says, he was on the way to the top 50 before the unfortunate illness with his coach and then his knee problem. Life's not always fair, but hopefully this enforced break will give him the energy to push his game to where it was heading before these things happened.

Congratulations to them both - and all best wishes for the future. Quite nice that they've been able to begin married life actually in the same place without his having constantly to travel. Silver linings and all that.

Expecting him to take WCs for challengers and ATP events in the UK on grass and I fully imagine at the very least he will be given a WC or use his PR ranking to enter Wimbledon either qualies or MD.

In that clip he was looking in very good shape and hitting well so fingers crossed.

Definitely a British tennis legend, 1200! junior CH but made the top 100 at 28 (eat your heart out Oli Golding) and aparently the best moaner in the Davis Cup team. Respect, may the AELTC anoit him with wildcard of every persuasion.

What's this? He has a negative rep for being a moaner when he's with the Davis Cup lads?

It's a positive rep. It was in jest but unanimous when the players were interviewed before one of the earliest ties Kyle featured in.
