As this is such a big ticket event in GB domestic tennis (with prize money of £2k for the winner and big cheques all the way down) it usually gets its own thread.

 

There's a full 64-player quali draw, which is great to see.

Play kicks off tomorrow (Sunday)

 I was wondering when anyone would notice that. The seeding list is still showing the same on the LTA site, but Jonathan Gray actually withdrew before the draw.

Didn't see any of Joe's match - it started a bit late and I had to leave. James and Dan were looking good though, (as you'd expect !)

Great to see Jack (Cap on backwards) Carpenter is still hitting the ball quite well. Long time since I saw him play last. Decent player but a lot of injuries unfortunately.

Hoping Joel's win today was coupled with some decent A Level results, which I know he was nervous about today.

So Lucy retains the title she won last year with Marcus Willis

Incidently, I heard that Marcus was offered a wild card this year, but couldn't make it.
