Apart from the addition of Jay Clarke to the main draw as a wild card, the entry list currently remains unchanged, but it looks as though Evo (SE?), Alex Ward, Dino & George Loffhagen ( ) are in, too, if the British Tennis tweet on this page is anything to go by.
QR1: Jonathan Binding UNR (CH = 1756 in December 2016) vs (qWC) Dominic West UNR
QR1: Alexis Canter WR 1233 (CH = 1224 at the start of last month) vs (qWC) Jack Molloy UNR
QR1: Adam Jones WR 1605 (CH = 1580 in April) vs (q8) Tobias Simon WR 441 (CH = 415 in February)
QR1: (q2) Tobias Kamke (GER) WR 223 (CH = 64 in January 2011 - he's now 32) vs Lloyd Glasspool WR 451 (CH = 282 in July 2016) - but a decent next round draw, should he somehow come through it QR1: (qWC) Oscar Weightman UNR vs (qWC) Max Stewart UNR
QR1: Joshua Paris WR 1025 (CH = 893 last July) vs Ed Corrie WR 445 (CH = 215 in October 2104) QR1: Jonny Gray WR 586 (CH = 538 in April) vs (q7) Andrés Artuñedo (ESP) WR 380 (CH = 293 in March 2014)
QR1: (q3) Dominik Köpfer (GER) WR 237 (CH = 225 in March) vs (qWC) Brandon Murphy UNR QR1: (qWC) Daniel Bennett UNR vs Mark Whitehouse WR 1325 (CH = 979 in October 2015)
QR1: Tiran Sanghera WR 1781 (CH = 1592 in February) vs (q6) Austin Krajicek (USA) WR 360 (CH = 94 in October 2015)
QR1: Marcus Willis WR 724 (CH = 322 in June 2014) vs Brydan Klein WR 464 (CH = 169 in September 2015)
QR1: Matt Reid (AUS) WR UNR (CH = 183 in February 2014) vs Neil Pauffley WR 740 (CH = 406 in August 2013) QR1: Jack Findel-Hawkins WR 845 (= CH) vs (q5) Illya Marchenko (UKR) WR 279 (CH = 49 in September 2016)
So the best two British grass court players in the draw face each other in QR1. JFH who seems like a very good prospect draws Marchenko who is seriously under-ranked. Tough!!!
Sadly dont see anyone getting through this field. The bottom group with Brydan, Marcus and Neil in habe Luke Saville and Matt Reid who are stronger than them on grass. I actually wonder if top section where jack molloy plays alex canter could be our best hope.
