It looks like Liam had a choice between the main draw in Lexington and the Q draw here, so I thought he'd go to Kentucky, though he may have had to make the choice before he scraped into the main draw there.

QR1: (q9) Liam Broady WR 357 v (PR) Frank Moser (GER) UNR (CH 288 in 2003)

Moser, who is now 40, will be playing his first singles match in an ATP-ranked event for a year. The winner will play 2nd Q seed Yuki Bhambri in final qualifying.

 

L48: Kyle Edmund WR 45 v Hyeon Chung (KOR) WR 53 (CH 51 in 2015)

H2H: 0-1, 3&2, Burnie Challenger QF 2015

The winner will play 4th seed Grigor Dimitrov in R2. 

 

Edit:  just correcting the spelling of Dimi's surname.  wink

Good choice - better prize money and ranking points if the draw was kind and it looks decent.

Well played Liam. That's 4 more points in the bag and 1.355 USD into the bargain.

One more win required to qualify. The qualifying spots in the MD are

Malek Jaziri
Guido Pella
Stefan Kozlov
Marcus Baghdatis
Marius Copil
Lucas Lacko

I was about to comment that all the qualifiers will avoid seeds in the first round, but then I realised it was a 48 man draw and all the 16 seeds got a Bye. So that is hardly surprising and not my best ever stat.

Yes, having seen all the draws since, I'm sure you're right

Cam was prevented from playing qualies here by doing too well in Binghamton but has an SE into the main draw in Lexington.

Intrigued as to how I managed to mis-spell Dimi's surname, but thanks, SC!

Ah, that will have been my dodgy Ameican keyboad (no doubt not made in Ameica, but still) - thee is the odd key that doesn't egiste unless you hit it vey had, which isn't ideal. I was in huy so didn't e-ead it as I usually would.

P.S.  I also inserted "is" between "who" & "now" in the reference to Franki M!  wink

Ah, can't blame the keyboard for that one - started off phrasing it one way, decided to phrase it another way and left a mixture of the two.

L16:  (3) Jamie Murray & Bruno Soares (BRA) CR 11 (5+6) vs Steve Johnson & Edouard Roger-Vasselin (USA/FRA)  CR 183 (148+35)

Sodding ATP site seems to be off-line at the moment.  furious
