After you "introducing" him on here so to speak I.....and I am sure most on here......will follow his results and support with much keener interest. Good luck to him.

Hi Adam, and a really big thank you for letting us know what is going on with Josh.

Very sorry to hear about your father, it must leave a big loss.

RJA was a big fan (still is, I'm sure) of Josh a couple of years ago and, based largely on that and having heard about him re the Maccabi games, I watched him play at the NTC (well, watched others too of course, but spent quite a while sitting watching Josh). He has a lovely game and I'd looked out for him since and wondered . . . I'm so pleased he's decided to train in Spain and give it a real go. He'll have the support of everyone here, you can count on it

Toby has started his match against Sam Barry. Early days so far. *1-1

Toby was well down in that set, but fought back to force a TB, and won it

its a shame he lost today,

hardly surprising but it wouldve been good to see a few more games under his belt

what he can take from it however (this can be seen as good or bad), is that on 90% of his service games he had a game point, he NEEDS to concentrate on that.

coupled with 4 break points, he couldve swung it slightly had he been more effective on those points.

anyway, you have to learn from these things...

on to the next one

It's been a good two weeks for Josh. Losing today to a guy who was almost Top 150 just a couple of years ago is no disgrace.  Sometimes lessons learned from defeat are more beneficial in the long run than wins.

Hoping Josh remains positive.  On to next week now.

Not so sure that smiley is necessary SC. Got to beat the best to win it after all.

Also, Sam Barry isn't really in any great form this year either. He's there for the taking that's for sure.

 

You called that one, Jaffa smile

 

Thrilled for Toby - great result. Shows all the investment is paying off.

 

And a very good tournament for Josh too - Weintraub is a very good, proven top player. Well done on the progress.

Tough going for Toby in the early stages against the young Frenchman. Grenier leads *4-1
