Nor forgetting Evo.    The LTA comments as follows:

Wild cards have been reserved for Andy Murray, who has a career-long commitment to the tournament, in case he is fit enough to play, and last year's runner-up Novak Djokovic and 2008 champion Rafael Nadal, should they want to join the line-up nearer the time of the event.

These are new annoucements today actually with Dan having been announced prevously. I think the LTA quote is from Dan's announcement (?) and that (unsurprisingly) none of Andy, Novak or Rafa will be playing singles at Queens and so had 2 Wc's to hand our still so choose Jay and Feli.

Edit - in fact Dan isn't even on your link list at the top there!? I can only see Kyle, Cam, Kyle for GBR? am sure Dan has one though

For some reason they have left him off the entry list below on the website, but we know these guys are pretty **** at these types of things!

The main draw singles entry list is here & includes Kyle & Cam.  On the basis of the rankings on 7th May, Kevin Anderson will be the top seed, but I expect that will change when tomorrow's rankings are published.

The qualies list is here.  The LTA comments that the "field is so strong that five players ranked inside the world's Top 100, including 2005 runner-up Ivo Karlovic, were unable to get in".  All the players on the list are in fact inside the top 100.  No Brits among them, but neither the qualies wild cards nor the main draw wild cards appear to have been announced yet, so there's hope...

 the qualies list is crazy strong, 3 top 50 players . I cant recall what other ATp500 events typically get, Halle list starts at 62 althouggh it ends at 90 similar to Queens. But Queens has 6 players above the first Halle  entrant

the draw to me is one of the most interesting they have had - whilst missing a top 4 big name, it is stacked with every talented player around, really good set of attractive ball players. I really want to see how tsitsipas goes in Den bosch this week and then Queens, and then Wimbledon. He is my tip to win the thing. Grass is about shot playing at its best and that is what makes it so different from other surfaces, guys like ST, Shapo, FAA , Medvedev, De Minaur, Dan Evans, all have such variety and skill, not to mention Del Potro, Wawrinka, Kyrgios etc etc

I'm (fairly) seriously considering going to watch qualifying on Saturday (weather permitting). Does anyone know what sort of time it's advisable to arrive? Thanks.

I got there about 10.30 last time and got in fine.
