yes, I was surprised by how skinny the qualifying was . . .
Lewis Burton presumably made the main draw too? He's on the Q list but ahead of the first Q in the draw. Unless he's withdrawn?
Am wondering if young Marcus Walters also has a WC. After his win last week ? Would be generous but he doesn't seem to be in the Q draw and is on the list and would be a reasonable boost for the youngster.
Good luck to young Ryan Storrie who certainly has a reasonable chance of getting through and making the main draw

Big congrats to 17 year-old Jake Munns, for not only beating WR 1412 player (and CH 1166 last June), but also being the only Brit to beat a 'pesky' today !!!!
I believe that Ryan is now based at Gosling, and everything is going extremely well.
Will be very interesting to see how things progress; they'll be a lot of changes to get used to. I think that his tennis to date has been almost purely on hard courts and outdoors.
But Gosling have a great team and I'm sure he's getting a lot of support, so all the best to him.
That is good to hear, I think up until now he has made the most of the hand that he had been dealt and could probably do with the support as a few new cards come his way!
