Boys & Girls: Les Petits As, France, indoor - U14 Category 1 (Week 4)


The main draw for this event should be out this evening with Patrick Brady, Matilda Mutavdzic and Andrea Pineda expected to be in it.  Qualifying is taking place, and the one Brit who has made it through to the final round, Samuel Reeve, is on court at present - you can see him (white top) at http://www.lespetitsas.com/live/ on court 2 - currently 4-4 in the first set

Thanks for the link, David. That's taking care nicely of the twilight hour.....

If people remember, there was a lot of hype about young Patrick Brady a while back when he was just a tiddler:

(10) Matilda Mutavdzic (GBR) def. Fatma Idrizovic (SRB) 6-1 6-1

Andrea Pineda (GBR) def. (WC) Nahia Berecoechea (FRA) 6-3 6-3


(Patrick Brady seems to have Thailand next to his name - is that just part of his already mentioned general sitting on the fence? Or is this a 'new' sign of his Thai allegiance?)

Issey Purser lost her first qualifier to a Spaniard.

Patrick Brady is shown as British on the TE drawsheet - I guess that it is a similar situation to Isabelle Wallace, where some websites like Flash Scores insisted on referring to her as GBR last year because of some software glitch which picks up on a previous nationality.

Both boys are on outside courts tomorrow. Matilda misses out on a meeting with Gael Monfils's sister Maelie, after she lost to a Polish wildcard today.

Girls R2

(10) Matilda Mutavdzic v (WC) Natalie Michta (POL)
Andrea Pineda v TBD

Sam struggled but the others all progressed - Andrea was effectively frustrating her seeded opponent largely through moonballing from the few minutes I saw. All three can be viewed tomorrow - Matilda is second and Andrea 5th on court 1 while Patrick is 4th on court 2, against Sam's Bolton conqueror
