Emma Raducanu makes the Classic final, thrashing Harriet. Is she close to a nomination?!
I'll definitely be nominating the winner of tomorrows women's final. I think that Emma win earlier has gone a little under the radar on here, especially the manner of it, and she was absolutely fantastic, but if she doesn't win the title then, bar injury, she'll have lost twice to Jodie, and 2 of her few more realistic 'losable' matches this week. That said, if someone did want to nominate her simply on the basis of comfortably beating a top 150 player, then I'd have no complaints.
Liam also a winner, might be close to a nomination as well?
Very close. Stick him in there. I will nominate him.
Terrific comeback against Wardy yesterday and a totally dominant performance today.

Thanks Bob. If it stays below 7 nominations I'll keep it as one straight poll. If we get to 8 or more, which with two weeks left we should, I'll split it into semis like last month.
I think going forward I'll keep it like that, 7 or less 1 poll , anymore and it will be groups.
It's maybe more symbolic than anything else - but it's a very important symbolic moment - and actually a good win too.....
So I'd like to nominate Jay Clarke as the first GB player to get a proper, official win on the board, post COVID.
Well done, that man !

With one week left, Mandy C going well in Portugal, cam qualifying in the USA, 4 mens singles, 4 mens doubles, 2 womens singles , 1 womens doubles in the big Masters/premier level event playing, 4 British Tour titles, and Jay, Liam and several Brits in European action next week, will anyone get onto our list of nominees in the next week?

Thanks SC....any idea if it's an actual tournament with a league table or rounds, or just a series of random matches?
