Felix Gill continues to impress, especially for a 2002-born and someone who has played very little ITF tennis. I've heard the LTA think well of him. This is his first SF at G4 level and, with only 5 counters before this, will give him a big boost in the rankings.

QF:

Felix GILL (GBR) [6] 4-6 6-4 6-3 Johan GARPERED (SWE) [4]

Chris RODESCH (LUX) [2] 6-4 6-2 Peter ALAM (GBR) [8]

And Felix is into the final

(Peter and Felix lost their doubles SF).

Very close but Felix couldn't quite take the trophy:
