 Well, Seppi got a LL spot too.

As did Max Purcell.

So ALi G would have been pretty unlucky NOT to get one. 

But good on him

And good job he didn't get a Wimble quali wildcard really.....

Purcell and Seppi also got LL spots, so tht's three out of the four losers - Gombos [Q2] was the one who missed out.

On the OoP tomorrow, only Jay in singles - last match on centre court, NB 3 pm

Ali and Luke have their dubs, as do Bambo and Murray

(and this is assuming the weather is OK...... which is optimistic, at best)

Unsurprisingly Cam has withdrawn, so assume Gombos will take his place.

 That would be nice for him - poor lad, the only one who didn't get a LL spot. 

Assume he's still hanging around.....

And, yes, agree with seagull, sensible decision for Cam

Cams vacated section would then be Gombos v Popyrin and Ali Gray v Ivashka

It is a shame, I find it hard to see Ali being experienced enough to take advantage but that is a mouthwateringly enticing prospect isnt it?
