Entries - Week 7 - 15/02/2016


Bob, looks like you've got the young Aussie superstar - 16 year-old de Minaur. Currently Junior no. 2 !!! He's got to be worth a look.

And the Nowegian top youngster too - ex-no 1, currently no. 9, Caspar Ruud. He's 17 and based down in Spain, I believe.

And give a quick cheer to Dan Dowson too - the Aussie training partner of Alex and James A.



As well as Alex and Billy, of course smile

So it's not SO bleak ....

Certainly looking to meet up with Alex's training squad and chat with Billy about Soto. Will keep an eye out for the others.

Great to see James Ward back on the circuit, I know he had a very tough time through 2015 and therefore wise to step back a bit. Hopefully from a fitness perspective he is OK?

Think you can take Kyle's name off the Delray Beach list. Commentary last night suggested Kyle is heading home now and will be off to Dubai for Week 8

 I remember a Norwegian tour journeyman named Christian Ruud who gave Boris Becker a run for his money at the 92 Olympics - wondering if it's a relation?

Yes, Christian is the father of Caspar.

Think Caspar is based down in Spain now, having been trained by his Dad for a while and then his Dad saying, very sensibly, that his son needed some 'space' to make his own way.

Looks like the Team Bath trip to Israel has been called off. Scott, Rich and Jonny all withdrew from next week and the week after at the same time

Trying to guess the wildcards for Wirral and Shrewsbury - looks like Katie S might sneak a seeding at a weakish Wirral event

Wirral - cannot see Maia accepting a third consecutive wildcard. Laura D may have sneaked into main draw, Emily A may be one out. On that basis, Emily A, Jodie, Ema Lazic and Manisha or Beth for the wildcards.
Local girls, Eden Richardson, Chloe Hughes, Lauren McMinn and Ellie-Rose Griffiths should all get qualifying wildcards

Shrewsbury - Luke Oakley looks nailed on, maybe Sapwell, Marzi, Jay Clarke. Expect Harry Meehan to get a QWC
