Week 37 - Great Britain F4 ($15,000) - Nottingham (hard)


Although jumping the gun a little a potential Lloyd v Oli final would be a quite some climax for a British 15k, potential challenger players? no easy points, a bit like the first British Tour event of year Liam v Ed C. Let's see if Finn or the pesky can put a spanner in the works first.

Terrible from Oli dropping his first set in 11 games!
Looks like a good game between him and Ryan. And well done to Finn as well.

Well done to Ben Jones, too, for getting a doubles ranking now.

And they'll be at least one Brit in the dubs final, which is always good.

Good week and interesting set of semis to look forward to. Is this starting to look like a proper comeback for oli?

Oli could rise into the mid 600's after this week and maybe top 500 with a strong 3 week run, or am I being too optimistic?

 I'm hoping he can have an Evo-esque climb of several hundred places over the next year. Perhaps I'm being a bit optimistic too.

 We could do with some good news, without the drugs!

I liked Oli when I saw how he handled himself at a tournament long ago (When Evo was being a prat in the same tourney). I wish him the best.

Well if he can beat Lloyd here it would indicate he is in the type of shape normally associated with that futures to challenger transition and given what he has achieved over the last month or so I think he good comfortably demolish a whole lotta pasta and sit inside the top 500. From there he could knock out a decent number of counters a mixture of futures and European challengers that would keep you relatively local and get in and around the top 300 perhaps up to 250.

From a quality of life perspective is that what Oli is looking for? It's still a very good standard, but not that financially rewarding . Then it gets a bit more interesting as regardless of your natural talent level, you really are talking about a yearly plan etc... to crack the top 200.

We're not quite there, Oakie

Semis are up and running.

Both on serve for the moment - with a break apiece in the Oli/Evan F match. And no breaks in Finn/Lloyd

And now there's an MTO in the Oli/Evan match.

Yes, I thought the MTO was probably for Evan - he pulled out of Barnstaple a couple of days ago. And he's quit, which is probably sensible.

Oli G def. Evan Furness 5-4 Retired
