Had a feeling Luke might pop up in the USA challengers. I guess he might play Orlando the week after as well.

I was sorely tempted to correct it to "Tyre", but assumed someone would sooner or later point out to me the error of my quaint old British English ways, so I left it.  What can you expect from Yank peasants? evileye  Curiously, the Canadians, who more often than not follow British English spelling (or used to), resolutely refuse to use the spelling "tyre"...  disbelief  Even Bob earlier today spelt "defence" "defense" & that's not the first instance I've noticed of American spelling.  cry

 NZ call some things like Americans do but others how the British do. 

Would also change it to tyre but I suppose the tournament is call tire so...

I think sometimes people just use American spell checks. I know when Indy first used the board I used to think he was American but he a long time ago corrected it.

Yes. I just get fed up with the spellchecker telling me I am wrong so I go with the flow sadly.  Licence/License is another one that it keeps throwing at me.

You need to change your keyboard from English US to the UK one.

Quite agree. 

Life's too short to worry like mad about defence or defense. 

They're both valid spellings so what's the problem....

Just go with the flow....

(and yes, I set my default to UK spelling but it seems to flip sometimes and I can't be bothered.....)

Close but well done. Is Doumbia related to former player Yayiha Doumbia, Senegalese top 70 player?

Took my eye off the ball well & truly there, didn't I?    The error has now been corrected.
