Beth scrapes through, saving several match points, winning 11-9 in the MTB.

Feel a little sorry for Emily Appleton. But didn't see enough to get a feel for the match.

Jay really has something to think about after his match too. Very happy he got the win, he needed that, I expect - but he was SO close to losing it, and was often on the back foot when he shouldn't have been.


 I watched the whole of Beth v Emily. Emily was well otplayed in the first set, only her serve saving her from a worst score. Beth started making a string of unforced errors in the second set, and gave away the decisive break to love at 4-4. Not a lot in it really oerall, could have gone either way in the MTB with Emily leadng most of the way.

Thanks, the addict.
Yes, Emily App has a very good serve, well above her general level, really.
Sounds as though Beth sort of deserved it overall.
Freya was a little unlucky, rough line call right at the end. But she escaped by a whisker yesterday. And you can't quite expect miracles every time.

Henry P despatches Julian Cash in 2 sets, it means George Houghton has to win in 2 sets against Henry to have any chance of qualifying and stopping Julian and Henry being the qualifiers from this Group D.

Women's draw (according to me)

Pool A
Lily needs a set off Emma to go through, Emma needs a straight sets win to overtake Lily. Freya is through.

Pool B
If Alice beats Eden in straight sets, all three will be tied on 3 points - otherwise Lauryn and Eden are through, with Eden top.

Pool C
Sonay and Katie are through and play off tomorrow

Pool D
Emily is through. Beth needs a set off Nadia to go through, but a straight sets win will see her top the group.

And the mens leagues (according to me!)

Pool A
If Jay wins, he will top the group with Giles 2nd. If Josh wins in 3 sets, it is a 3 way tie and games countback; if Josh wins in 2 sets, he and Giles are through and Jay is out. Giles looks in best shape but isnt certain

Pool B
Anton and James are through, play off tomorrow

Pool C
Billy is through. Charlie needs to get 1 set versus Dan Cox tomorrow and will join him; if he doesnt get one set, Dan goes through with Billy

Pool D
Basically unless George wins in straight sets against Henry, Henry and Julian are through. If it is straight sets, it is a 3 way tie and game count back

 Did anyone watch? Just wondering how James played as he hasn't played on tour for 3-4 months.

Alice took the first set off Eden, which made the group look very interesting but Eden looks like she will get the second set and secure the top spot.

Lily leading Emma WIlson comfortably and heading towards the semis as well

 Lily beat Emma in 2 sets so Lily wins Pool A with Freya in 2nd spot, both into the last 8 now

 Alice put up a fight but Eden wins the second set and thus Eden tops the group with Lauryn taking second, and both progress to the QF stage

 And Henry takes that opening set and as a consequence will top the group with Julian also going through. 

In Pool A, Josh Paris took the first set against Jay. So it is now Giles 3, Jay 2, Josh 2; Jay is leading the second set and it is getting very interesting in a group we probably all expected Jay to win at a canter.

Does anyone know what happens if there is a tie with players on 3 points at end of league standings? I imagine a 2 way tie is just down to H2H. But a 3 way tie must go back to games countback as by its nature they will all be equal on sets? And does an MTB count as 1 game or do they count the points won as equal to games? I cant find it anywhere on the website to see that explained!
