From Steven:

Columbus Challenger:
@JamesWardtennis
has drawn Jordi Arconada ARG WR 480 (CH 405 in Aug) in R1, while Lloyd Glasspool will play (WC) Cannon Kingsley USA WR 871 (CH 593 last May; junior CH 10 in 2019)

Stircrazy · Tennis legend

L48: Jordi Arconada (USA) WR 485 (CH = 405 last August ) vs James Ward WR 273 (CH = 89 in July 2015)

He'll play JJ Wolf, the sixth seed, if he wins that one.

L48: Lloyd Glasspool WR 447 (CH = 282 in July 2016) vs (WC) Cannon Kingsley WR 871 (CH = 593 last May)

The 13th seed, Jurij Rodionov, lies in wait for the winner of that one.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Nice win by James, 6-3 7-6.

He saved two SPs in the tie-break. Kept calm. Pretty dynamic too, for James. Jordi makes a lot of balls, not easy.

L48: James Ward WR 273 defeated Jordi Arconada (USA) WR 485 by 6-3 7-6(6)

*****

L32: (6) JJ Wolf (USA) WR 163 (= CH) vs James Ward WR 273

Hey SC, the tennis on telly Twitter account gives the Ward tb score as 7-6(6) smile and it's usually accurate (it's a fellow Brit who runs it and the website)

Thanks, FW. My post duly amended. Sorry, but I'll have nothing to do with Twitter or any other social medium, so I generally live in ignorance of many of the finer points if they aren't available on more conventonal sources.
