Hehe Bob in Spain tried quite hard to jinx Billy, but I think that last sentence might just have helped Billy squeak through this one. It would be hard to have two closer sets and match than this - there was just one point in it over the whole match. smilebiggrin

The potential QF opponent would be Antoine Hoang. Billy lost to him in the QF 2 weeks ago losing 7-6 in the 3rd. Hoang went on to win the SF 2&3 and the Final 3&1. He is currently in the 3rd set decider (against Cagnina) of this week's final as well.


Well this isn't going to happen.  Having won the title two weeks ago and reached the final last week, Hoang has been beaten in the 1st round this week.

Billy took the 1st set 6-3 but lost the 2nd 6-1.

Currently on serve at 2-1* in the decider.

Botherations. Another point in the bag though and hopefully another step closer to seeding in the future.

Very good effort by Billy, but had a bit of a slump in the third set - although fought back with a love hold in the 9th game with two aces.

He's playing well above his ranking though, so I'm sure the points will keep mointing up. I think Billy has 16 counters at the moment ( including a number of single pointers) and I believe that 18 is the maximum.

I thought it was 16 maximum?

I don't follow the women's game much but I think it may be 16 for the women. I am sure people will put me right if that is not the case.

Tx. I think you might be right (again ).

Wouldn't it be nice if the ATP and WTA, and the ITF, all made friends and played nice and came up with a consistent set of rules????
