 Billy is in directly for this week now. Interesting unlike the previous week when there were 18 direct acceptance places this week is showing 15 for the 32 man draw. Trying to work out where the rest come from.8q, 2Se. Leaves 7, surely cant be 7 WC places.

 Maybe it's not updated properly - Gb f6 shows only 16 directly accepted as of now, so maybe the ITF computer needs a reboot  

Goodness, we've now got Tiran Sanghera and Ed Hubner as direct entries into the MD at Barnstaple (and probably Adam Jones and Rob Carter too, as they're 19th and 20th and you have 20 direct entries).

Only 4 non-Brits in the top 20.

Although it's true that three of them are the top three seeds - Manuel Guinard (FRA) looks set to turn up as top seed - he's playing his QF in France today (rather strange he'd come to Barnstaple just for one week but hey.....). Robert and Vilardo are the other two.

Good for Wardy - but Jung in the first round is tough. Soeda in FQR possibly, he has lost twice out of two to him, albeit quite sometime ago
