The geography in and around Tennessee is a bit challenging in that Tennessee has borders with 10% of all the states in the U.S. As Brendan points out the tournament is in Lexington Kentucky. So the home of University of Kentucky a basketball powerhouse I would be surprised if the University of Kentucky tennis team come out to cheer a volunteer particularly when his opponent is from the UK!

 Oakland and Brendan, thank you for being so gracious about probably easily the most geographically off post ever to make it onto this board. Memo to self: thought process that goes: check university of WC whom you (at least) remember is at university ... discover it's Tennessee ... assume he must therefore be home player  (forgetting title of thread) ... and therefore this must be the Knoxville Challenger (ditto) ... and make comment on this basis (ditto again) ... is not a good one.

Good luck to all the players. Some interesting matches there!

Seemingly Opelka served 10 aces in a row last night.

Good luck, Lloyd.

At least it's not too tiring when they serve like that

Going indoors, not sure that will really help Lloyd in returning his opponents serve.

Lloyd really is on a good run at the moment. Long may it last.

Qualifier spots against

Mitchell Krueger
Juan Londero (Alt)
James Ward
Daniel Nguyen

Some decent chances there for Lloyd. On current form, I would back him to beat Wardy. Part of me hopes that they avoid each other but it would at least guarantee a Brit in R2.

What a great idea to go indoors, of course it may have had no impact at all, whatever the case great result for Lloyd.

Well.  I guess we are going to find out if I am right.

Lloyd plays Wardy.
