This week we have a flutter of interest from our top yougsters

Henry Searle (2006) has made the SF in Turkey

And Mimi (2007) is in the QF Tunisia, trying to do the same

And is still en piste in the doubles

Well done Mingge. Hopefully the first of many titles to come over the years ahead.

We now still have 3 boys with adult rankings
But the girls have five
That's not bad, compared to how it's often been, but not great for the boys

Oh Lord - I was not really switched on this morning - I'm sure I knew that at one point in my life - but not this morning

Thanks, twentytoone

Amazing win by our Henry at the USA challenger

L32: Henry Searle WR 764 def (1) JJ Wolf (USA) WR 102 by 7-5 7-6(6)

Saw that match and thought he was very impressive, stayed so calm to hit 4 aces in a row from 0-30 down at the back end of set 2. And then came back from 0-3 down in the tiebreak. On clay too against a very good opponent. :)
