PS thiem entering Lyon takes Dan out of a seeding spot, sadly

actually, looks like Moutet isnt using a wildcard after all so there are still 2 going in each of Lyon and Geneva...

Madadman · Top national player

Dan has withdrawn from Lyon

Dimitrov takes last wildcard in Geneva. Only one left is Lyon, there or bust? Seems strange theyve not said anything

Perhaps Andy didn't ask for any and may just go through RG quals?

Lyon's last wildcard goes to Stefanos Tsitsipas, so Andy Murray won't be playing there this week.

Thats a shame but clearly Andy feels he isnt ready or doesnt need to play. Presumably hes after a main draw wild card for fo still, perhaps he will keep on training ? Or play qualies...

Personally Id rather he did what he did a couple of years ago, play a few doubles events, get sharp, miss the French and go for the grass with Stuttgart , queens and wimbledon..

In the wta event in Parma, both Naomi and Eden are in the doubles field. Naomi with Asia Mohammed and Eden with Kim Zimmermann. Both have avoided seeds in the opening round.

An injury setback perhaps for Katie B? She seemed to be training ok earlier in the week.

It's a pretty bare week on the women's side next week. I assume most will be a 'one and done' type situation, but there are a few names appearing on threads TA has created today that I wasn't aware of.

There were 14 players left on the acceptance lists yesterday. Carla Nokes didn't make the cut (not unusual) and Iman Khan hasn't appeared in qualifying. Six in qualifying, with six more main draw acceptances. And that doesn't include doubles only entries (which usually aren't drawn until Monday)

Add:- Emily W-S is in Belgrade, but hasn't made the cut for doubles - last entry was on site CR230. Eden + and Naomi + are in the Parma draw

The main draw is out in the US W25. 48 player draw, and Jodie and Katie S both have byes in to R2 / last 32.

Well there are/were actually 17 women in the various draws this week, with Emily W-S getting a late place in Belgrade doubles, Iman Khan with a MDWC, and Olivia Nicholls playing doubles in Spain.
