Week 45 - Challenger ($75,000) - Knoxville Challenger, Knoxville, TN, USA (hard)


And, in fairness, Denis Kudla has a CH of 53. Hasn't (clearly) had a good year, but still capable, one suspects, of closing out matches if given the chance.

L16:  (Q) Filip Peliwo (CAN) WR 279 (CH = 223 in April 2014) vs Liam Broady WR 170

Peliwo took out Tommy Paul (8)  by 4 & 5.


L16:  John-Patrick Smith (AUS) WR 217 (CH = 108 in September 2015) vs (LL) Ed Corrie WR 358

JPS removed Sandgren, the top seed, in striaght sets.  I don't suppose Ed will mind too much, though, being pleased to reach the second round after getting in as a lucky loser.

Am I right in thinking that the last time Ed got into a Challenger MD as a LL, he went on to make the final ?

I'm not at one bit surprised by these recent Norrie losses. Cam clearly has fitness issues, as he has been called out many times for taking too long between points. He needs to rest up and go gluten free over the winter, so then he can begin his assault on the top 30 next year.

 Remember, when Novak went gluten free, for 2 years, he was the best tennis player in history, the level he played at was a level that Nadal and Federer never reached at their peak.

Watched the later stages of Liam's match. Gutted he couldn't get the win. Those two have alot of 'previous' - I was looking over their junior history earlier.
