Such a shame kyle cruised the first set, ticking on nicely in the second and then got hurt. I hope he has time to rest it before the flight and then allow it to settle properly, before some conditioning work and back out on tour. I really feel for all the players when they get injured its so frustrating when playing for let alone when it's your livelihood
No surprise - Bourchier looked a good player against Kyle and I've lost count of the number of weeks Brydan has played consecutively - he must be due a rest.

He hasn't got through that many rounds though. I guess you could argue he's been 'working' for two days a week and 'having a rest' for five . . . Seriously, though, his results overall would imply that he's been playing pretty .... I feel this is going to be an important year for Brydan.
That's tough :( But another Ozzie youngster coming through well; they've certainly got a stable of them:
L16: Brydan Klein WR 243 lost to (WC) Harry Bourchier (AUS) WR 1006 (CH 810 in Dec; 19yo, junior CH 24 in 2013) 2-6 7-6(5) 6-4
yes, its exciting with all the younger players coming through and especially for Australia and America who have really struggled in the mens game for quite a while.
noticed that Jared Donaldson beat Stefan Kozlov in straight sets in Memphis 1st round this week. Two more excellent prospects for the US and the game.
