I assume Josh Milton, Marcus Willis and possibly Dan Smethurst have wildcards (assumes Ed got in direct)

Weather permitting I am hoping to get down tomorrow. I wouldn't mid see Evo and Norrie as I've never seen them before. No Marzi - must have picked up an injury at British Tour.

It's wet, forecast to stay wet until lunchtime and I don't think the covers are great, so there will be no play or it will be moved indoors. Dave Rice might be the other option for a wildcard.

Dave Rice tweeted saying he was playing Manchester so I would assume he has been given a wildcard.

If Dan Evans is fit he is a treat to watch more talented than any other GB  player apart from Andy but will Dan perform to his ability
