Doubles draw out. Includes Arthur Fery with Felix Gill, Aidan with Luke, Anton M, and best is Finn Murgett with Tad Maclean, reward for their NCAA efforts the other week.

Super to give the youngsters a whirl.

And even better, as you say, for tad and Finn.

Fair enough, an opportunity to show enough form to grab a Wimby WC. So far none of the WCs in any of the tournaments have humiliated themselves and there have been a couple of good results, fingers crossed for some more.

Only Lui is an actual junior.

But it's true that it's good to see Felix and Arthur have a chance.

Wonder where Jack PJ is?

Both the 2002-ers have held serve, which must make them feel good, at least.

1-1 in both.

Watching four matches at once is killing me....

Felix went an early break up and nearly served it out but is now in a TB

Arthur played a good first set but just lost the TB ....

Luke won the first set but is a break down in the second
