Was just looking at the entry lists posted on the mens Tennis forum for Washington. James Ward appears in the Qualifying one(1) but no Kyle Edmund, but Edmund appears in Alternates for the main draw(2) although he has stated after the Binghamton win about playing Washington. Maybe he has a Wildcard.
he was 115kg last year?? I don't think I know a tennis player that comes close - even Isner is only 108kg and he's 6'9!
Mind you as Cav said previously, it's not the size that matters, it's whether you can maximise on your natural physical attributes and tailor it for your game style.... for a 6'2, big-serving, power player 90-95kg is probably about right, but it's all relative really

I think you have to take into account that Marcus is big boned, so will always be a few kilos heavier than someone of similar height.
But certainly well done to Marcus. Hopefully his resolve about that issue will spread through all aspects of his tennis if he wants to take all the steps he can to be the best that he can be.
