Week 7 - Great Britain F3 ($15,000) - Shrewsbury (indoor, hard)


Great to see young Joel come through a tough 3-setter in FQR, but oh, what a draw.

In fact that whole top quarter is ridiculous. It has the top seed who was a Top 200 player less tham 2 years ago, the 7th seed who won the tournament in Tipton last week, plus 3 qualifiers, 2 WCs and a LL. The two seeds must be licking their lips.

Marcus is playing doubles with Jack Molloy this week, and not Neil Pauffley, who isn't playing dubs.


Duly noted earlier.  wink  


 Yes, I saw the draw, was just a bit surprised

Lloyd has been having a bit of a slump recently - lost in R1 last week and again in R1 this week :::(((

Well done to Jonny Gray who keeps up the recent good form, though shame it had to be Josh P that he took out.

Finn lost 1-6 4-6 which is reasonable enough....

Max is battling well too but also on the losing end at the moment, down 4-6 2-3*

Jay's into a third set.

Ryan 3-3

Jay concedes the first break ot the final set on his 10th BP against in the set. Quite a few were in that last game and it seemed to have gone on a while before I followed it.

3-4*

Jay loses 6-3 3-6 6-4 after what looks to have been a great effort to hang in there for 2 hours 41 minutes.

Overall points were 94-107 against him, with points played on Jay's service hugely higher from even games 128-73. Jay converted 2/3 BPs in the match against 3/16.

Interesting tweet by Lloyd:
So I get fined for being highest rank Brit at torn yet get put on worst court. Only in England you get penalised for playing on home turf.

Great great win from Ryan. Clearly jealous of Jay getting all the plaudits.

Also that's insane that his first ranking win is a top 300er

Super from Ryan, yes quite a way to get his first ranking point  biggrin

Ryan was being touted along with Jay about a year or so ago as the ( then ) juniors to watch. He's rather gone off the radar since, I assume injuries involved.

 

Whatever, that's the way to come back onto the radar !

Have to confess (although nobody will believe me) that I thought Ryan would win that one. My prediction was based on the fact that Billy Harris beat Geens last year in Cartagena.
