Presumably the final MDWC is going to go to either Cam or (as may happen) if he moves into the final DA place, then Liam. Liam missing from qualies so presume Cam has got that final place and they have given Liam the final MDWC?

Anyone got any insights??

It's appearing on twitter - Cam has a MDWC

Andy wouldn't have needed a WC if he had entered, he was WR 45 at the 6 weeks before entry date. To be fair though it wasn't in his plans with an intended 's-Hertogenbosch and Queen's build up to Wimbledon.

Two rounds - 16 in draw, 4 to qualify. Jack Sock is top seed (as an alt !)

The top 4 Q seeds are ranked 14, 78, 81 and 223 ( Jay). I guess there is another qualifying event to keep these in the 100s occupied.

As it stands, Andy Murray's matches in Eastbourne will not be broadcast on free-to-air television next week. Amazon Prime is only broadcaster with ATP rights next week. BBC only have rights to broadcast WTA matches.

Shame he didn't get the last spot, Liam kicking heels this week, unless he plays doubles perhaps.

I really hate all of this separation of tennis and where you can watch it (legally). So it will be streams for me then. You need a few subscriptions at this point. (Please put Andy on a dinner time so I can get home from work!)

Hope Liam is in main draw otherwise a QWC to Jonny Gray seems a bit odd?

I dont think he can - there are only 3 slots and they have gone to Stan W, Andy and Cam...so no space for Liam.

And the QWC are tied up now, so no room there either. If he had entered qualies, he would have got in. Indeed, on the entry list site he is showing as in the qualifying field as per link below:

Perhaps he is nursing an injury of some sort?

Anyone know what the doubles list is like for this? I thought there are entry lists now for doubles but couldnt find one.

Odds on Kyle drawing Andy in R1 ?

Just about a nailed on cert in my opinion.
He could draw Stan instead which is worse!

I said it was a dead cert.

Andy to play Stan with the winner to play Kyle in R2.

QR1: (q2) Álex de Miñaur (AUS) WR 78 (= CH) beat (qWC) Jonny Gray WR 588 (CH = 538 in April 6-1 6-3

No disgrace in that. Really tough draw.
