Convincing win for jack, this week has been a strong week. Hes now at 10 wins over 3 weeks, tomorrow will make it 13 matches in that time.

I think hes entered in a south african challenger next , is that right?

I only caught the end when he was getting treatment, but he was a class above his opponent.

47 mins biggrin .

I forgot about this match, but saw the thread was bumped, so was going to catch a bit of it on a stream, but too late. If you snooze, you lose smile

Wow, wasn't expecting that scoreline! Well done Jack!

Well done Jack. I think those points should take him to a career high in the 280s once they go on, and with the next 3 counters to come off all being 1 point there must be scope for him to push towards top 250 before the grass court season. Anyone know where he'll be playing next?

Apparently a Challenger in South Africa week 10?

Thanks. That's a useful resource which I wasn't aware of.

A fabulous way for Jack to finish off a solid 3 weeks. Not such a tough match up as I had anticipated.

I see this South African challenger is listed as a "50", a lower level 32 player main draw with 24 draw qualies. Is this the 1st one played as I cannot remember seeing one to date?
