He played some excellent grass court tennis last year though

Yup, totally wrong of me to judge from one match I was courtside for a few games only. Wish I was courtside now !!

Kyle is a break down in the 3rd, Bolt is serving for it.

Darn, Gulbis to serve for it

Ohh, nice one Kyle, clearly broke Bolt when he was serving for it. 6-2, 6-3, 7-5.

What a shame, but a really good effort. Was that his first ever best-of-five set match?

On to the doubles...

Technically 2nd, if you count the FQR last year at Wimbledon but first at tour level.

Nix · Futures level

Great effort from Jay. So many good things about that performance.

nicofrance · Strong Club Player

A real shame Clarke lost to the odious Gulbis .

A great effort hopefully Gulbis gets sent packing in the next round.
