Week 38 - Challenger ($50,000) - Columbus OH, USA (hard)


Brydan (who reached R2 last year, as did Josh Milton), Lloyd and Cam should all be in the main draw here.

QR1: (q5) Luke Bambridge WR 494 v (wc) Joseph Thomas (USA) UNR
QR1: (q8) Joe Salisbury WR 652 v (wc) Hunter Tubert (USA) UNR

Neither of the opponents have ever played in an ATP-ranked event or an ITF junior event before. Tubert is at Ohio State - his main claim to fame seems to be that he had the longest unbeaten record in Ohio in high school in any sport, see http://www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com/sports/m-tennis/mtt/hunter_tubert_974463.html - and Thomas also seems to be a college player in Ohio, see http://www.cantonrep.com/article/20150530/SPORTS/150539959

Escobedo made the final in Cary last week, and although he was beaten by James McGee, he is clearly on good form.  Should be a cracker of a match.
