Liam is first up on ct 8 at 11.00 am local. I think that is 5pm for us. Kyle doesn't seem to be on today's oop.

No, it's not: North America put its clocks forward an hour last weekend, so is only four hours behind us until the early hours of Sunday morning. Liam is scheduled to kick off at 15.00 GMT. wink

Question for cam is where will he play on clay? His ranking is too low to get into ATP main draws so will he try and qualify or play Challenger circuit across Europe. I actually feel qualies might work best, the Challenger draws will be full of clay specialists whereas main ATP draws could throw up some higher ranked guys less strong on clay.

Edit - indeed, he is entered in Houston qualies as a starter for ten on the main tour
...and he is also on the alts list for Barcelona so it looks like Cam is aiming at playing qualies across the main clay tour rather than Challengers

and just adding to this, Cam is also on the alts list at 7 or 8th for Istanbul/Estoril/Munich the week after Barcelona, so it looks like he is going all in on the clay main circuit. Presumably he will try qualies in Houston, Barcelona, Istanbul/Estoril/Munich if he doesnt get bumped up enough to get in each one.

Wow krajinovic just cheats his way to first set. What a douchebag

seagull · Hall of fame

The officiating has been dreadful on this court. Umpire has overruled 4 times (3 against Broady) and with no hawkeye either

Goffin ended up losing 6-0 6-1! A bit unexpected!

Liam hit a smash (which bounced out) overhit it and it hit Krajinovic on the full. Umpire said it bounced before it hit him!

Liam been outclassed here by the way 3-6 1-5
