Strange that Guez suddenly turns up out of nowhere, to play a 15k down in Devon. Has he got mates down there or something?
There are important point opportunities for the unranked/lowly ranked players.
Neither Tad (born 2000) nor Barney Smith (born 1999) are ranked so that'll be one extra ranked player guaranteed.
Josh Rose and Anton Mat. is a similar match. Likewise, Tommy B against the LL. And Ryan P v Sean, Luke J v Dusty, and Josh P v Isaac: all players to whom every point counts.
As you say, Oakie, three 2001-ers (even without Jack) is great to see. As well as two 2000-ers. And two 1999-ers, I think.
Ryan S hasn't really capitalised on his great run in Ireland - got a couple of wins/points, here and there, which is all good, but not enough to make any real impact.
However, thrilled to see that Luke J has got a good win over the American. That'll get Luke into the top 1000. And with his doubles being successful, it's good to see another big-serving college boy doing well.
(A spring article about Luke said his plans for this year were to make top-800 in singles and top-500 in doubles). He's not quite there yet but he's not that far off.... Top-100 is the long-term goal.....)
Young Aidan is no doubt being drop-shotted to death by the Czech second seed and has lost the first set 3-6.
Ryan P (another college top-1000 very soon prospect) is 5-5 in the third with Sean H.
