Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Will Jansen resumed, having lost the first set. And being in a tie-break in the second. With the score poised at 6-5.
And Will won the set 7-6(8)

Which will upset the tournament organiser rather, as that's another match that's going to drag on, and will need to be suspended again, but hey....

Roan got the first set 6-4

But seems his opponent is playing better and the second could well be tricky.....

And tricky it was..... as Roan lost very easily after that first set, scarcely scoring a game.

And, as 21.15, Will Jansen's match got finished - although unfortunately in the wrong way - with the American lad winning the third set 6-3

He was serving at over 200km p/h on certain serves, so it can't have been easy, and he was 4th seed, after all.

But after the joy of winning the U18 nationals, and a very good showing against Anton Mat. in Wimbly qualis, Will Jansen hasn't had a very good Roehampton or junior Wimbly..... :(

Will may be disappointed with his losses, particularly Roehampton, but without seeing either match it seems an impressive Wimbledon debut given his opponent, which he can build on next year.

Billy putting up a good show against the 5th seed, but lost the first set in a TB

Jack PJ one set up

Fabio one set down

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Fabio Nestola lost 3 & 3

But he is 2005 born, i.e. has two years more in juniors.

But Jack gets a win, 2 & 4

Oliver Tarvet's match is on BBC iplayer/red button

(I've been following his name and results but have never seen him play so am going to catch 30 mins as a lunch break

He takes the first set against the number 11 in juniors. Keep going Oliver!

Utter killer for poor Oli, who lost the third-set TB 12-10

Only one MP that he really should have mega regrets about.

A really good-natured, good level match. Both lads were a credit to their trainers and parents.

So stressful. But well played both of them.

LordBrownof · Futures level

Agree, sucker of a final tie-break. I like that Oli went for it on match point too. Also, that pass by his opponent I think at 10-10 was fabulous!

We've had a couple of close three-setters, and perhaps the only criticism of our players is a lack of experience in these kinds of situations.

Patrick Brady with a great win. Lovely to see him come through quals and win a round.

A lovely win. Just looked him up and he's only 16 playing against an 18 year old top 40 player (CH32).

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

He got tons of media press when he was only 6 (Patrick) because he played in some adult tournament in Ilford (with his Dad? In doubles? I seem to recall). His dad's a tennis coach, I'm pretty sure. (I seem to remember his mum came from China ? But I may be making that up 100% completely - apologies if so). I believe Patrick spent some time in Argentina to train, though.

DavidC · Tennis legend

I didn't know about Patrick's background but a google search confirms the Ilford/Argentina connections. There is some useful information about all the British juniors, including coaches and bases in some cases, in this LTA article

Patrick now plays the German who put out the French Open champion
