 Quite.  Certainly in the matches I followed.  But maybe we missed some successes somewhere ?


I can offer you ... three unseeded British men beating 2nd seeds to make Futures finals today (one of those 2nd seeds was another Brit, admittedly, but still ...)

I'll take that, Evan's performance this week the highlight for me in the context of its the end of his first year back from injury.

Yes. I thought yesterday was a cracking day for British tennis.

Didn't expect Andy to win - and didn't think it really made much difference if he did or not - and Naomi's had a really great run recently (like JoKo) so it's not going to be all one way.

But the three wins in the 10k semis were brilliant - and might even be career-changing moments.

I thought it was a real smiley day ! biggrin

Bit of a sloppy start

2-3*

I hadn't twigged Anna and Joss had had such a bad second half of the year, only won 3 matches.

I believe Anna Smith will now take sole possesion of the GB number 1 spot given Jossanna will remain on the same ranking points, but Joss will have played an extra tournament.

Well done, Anna
