Cam qualifies. smile

FQR: (q9) Cameron Norrie WR 58 defeated (ALT) Egor Gerasimov (BLR) WR 104 by 2-6 7-5 7-6(3)

He needed two bites of the cherry to take both the second set & the decider.

Well done Cam - never a boring match.

Odds on Cam vs Kyle in R1 as a playoff for the Davis Cup spot ?

L48: Kyle Edmund WR 75 vs (Q) Ricardas Berankis (LTU) WR 70 (CH = 50 in May 2016)

That's not going to be easy! The winner will play Schwartzman (14) in the last 32.

L48: (Q) Cameron Norrie WR 58 vs Milos Raonic (CAN) WR 32 (CH = 3 in November 2016) bleh

The winner will play Thiem (5) in the last 32.

Ouch, hard draws.

They are all pretty hard at Masters level - maybe you'll get one lesser match in the first round, but then it's going to be tough

Definitely, that's why they are called Masters!

Maybe Kyle can give Willbomb a call for a few pointers.

How did Kyle qualify for the main draw? Was it based on his old ranking?

Yes. Entry deadlines are several weeks (6, I think) before the tournament. At that time, Kyle was ranked high enough for the automatic entry.

90 points in the bag. JJR/Tecau or Granollers/Zeballos (2) in the last 16.
