L16: Claudio Fortuna & Riccardo Maiga (ITA/SUI) CR 2232 (1134+1098) vs Curtis Clarke & Jay Clarke CR 1702 (1419+283 (*))
(*) On the strength of his exploits during the grass court season, Jay has shot up 599 places in today's rankings. It goes without saying that 283 is a CH.
Yes, but the overall score masks the quite remarkable turnaround Jay performed from the losing nine consecutive points in the first set to trail *4-2 40-0, he then won 18 consecutive points to take the set 6-4! Remarkable turnaround. Get in there, lad. Great win. Agree with Sheddie's excitement about Jay, I think he might be really big news!
No net points addition for Jay yet ( 18th counter is 2 ) but that covers the 2 due off on 07/08.
So he now has nothing due off until 6 points on 02/10 and any advance on 2 points each week until then ( including this week ) is a net gain. He has quite a few counters of 2 points to hopefully replace in the coming weeks.
The not bad list in total all adding in since October ( and counting the 2 points so far this week ) totalling 140 points:
1 x 20 ( Ikley Challenger QF )
3 x 18 ( 15K titles )
1 x 16 ( Wimbledon FQR )
6 x 6 ( 15K SFs )
7 x 2 ( 15K QFs )
