Good luck guys.

Hoping Liam can get back on track and back into the top 200.

Ah great, been waiting to see this thread go up - what time are matches and can anyone provide me with a livestream or livescore link I can access from my smart phone? I'm having trouble using my phone to access some of the sites I'd normally check if I could get to a pc.

Download the ATP/WTA app and go to the challenger section.

Matches start at 3am GMT and Liam and Josh are 3rd and 5th on court respectively. Live streams won't start to Monday if there is one.

Looks like the ATP Livestream will be in Bangkok.

No idea if this is accessible via a smart phone, and from the looks of it, the early qualifying rounds aren't going to be covered. Don't know if there are any other sites.

As for OoP times, there are no details yet on the ATP site so I will have to let someone else answer that one.

Edit: Ignore me and see Wolf's post above.

All the best to both guys. Beyond what has been our GB top 7 for a while it looks as if Josh intends to continue to have the most challenging schedule, both in tournament level and travel. He does give it a go.

I have only really seen Josh play a couple of times, and that was on grass where with more consistency he had a top 200 game. Indeed after Evo (under ranked at the to through injury) and Katie Swan (under ranked through age) he looked like the only player who could have made it through Wimbledon qualifying.

Liam l felt last year played well in a number of tournaments particularly in the first half of the year loosing a number of close games that in the preceding Autumn he had won. Although Liam's ranking has dropped he has had a number of positive experiences playing successfully at a higher level at Wimbledon and being around the Davis cup team last year. Given he is still only turning 22 and the margins that determine sucees so close, hopefully a positive mindset and another years experience should bring challenger success and a place in the top 200.

Onwards and upwards for both in 2016!

Broady lost. 6-2, 6-3.

Milts lost the 1st set 6-3

Bob in Spain · Tennis legend

Milts now a break up in the 2nd at *3-2 but with 9 breaks in 14 games, that probably doesn't mean too much.

Josh takes the 2nd set 6-3. Into a decider.

BradMarx90 · County player

Crazy game in Bangkok. The first set saw 7 breaks of serve. Milton seems to have steadied the ship though and may just have the upper hand.

Miriambee · Futures level

1-1 in decider. Game stopped due to darkness.

I think the Skupskis are over in Thailand this week. If so a different schedule.
I assume they won't be ranked high enough for Aus.
