Good stuff and 2 points here so far should now certainly see Jay into the top 900 on Monday week. GB's by far top senior ranked junior and indeed will now be GB top ranked teenager ahead of Joel Cannell.
Edit : of course that pales in comparison to some of the GB girls But then they in general develop earlier, certainly as competitive tennis players.
