Congrats to Luke. I think this is his first trip abroad.

But Josh P seems to be having trouble at the moment....

QR2: (q4) Josh Paris WR 1161 vs Francesco Salviato (ITA) UNR 6-2 6-2



Luke is very serious about his tennis. Has chosen not to pursue the college option. But really wants to give pro-tennis a go right now. And works hard.

thrilled for you, Luke.

It's not always easy on the first trip abroad.

And he's only 18.

And there's a bit of pressure, having to pay for the coach and the trip and everything (I think Simon Dickson is out there with him).

Good luck with the main draw.....

R1: (q) Luke Oakley WR 1689 v Isak Arvidsson (SWE) WR 611 (CH 489 Nov. 14)


Whisper it quietly but Luke has taken the first set 6-4. And is a break up in the second.

Luke kept his break for several games. But at *4-3, despite points for 5-3, got broken. Now 4-4

Damn. But that's a good effort against a decent ranked player. And at least a little pay cheque for his efforts. Encouraging.
