Boys & Girls: Viccourt Cup, Ukraine, indoor hard - Grade 2 (Week 4)

indiana · Tennis legend

Yes, seems strange to have so many G1 and G2 events in Aus Open week.

Anyway, some players will make hay. Hope ours included.

Oakland2002 · All-time great

I think it is quite well thought out particularly on the boys side as it gives the real youngsters (ie good boys turning 15) a chance to step up the age groups and compete right at the beginning of a new year age group wise.

Wow, absolutely excellent result for Arthur Fery (him of the French parents and Dad who is President of FC Lorient).

Takes out the second seed and top-100 player, Anselmo, in two.

A win also for Toby but real unlucky for Peter Alam, losing the third-set TB.

After the sun, the rain....

A turn-up for the books with Arthur winning the all-GB match. This will be a huge boost for him.
