On clay ? Is Jubby decent on clay ?

Not that it makes much difference but this event is actually indoor as opposed to outdoor clay. Jubby is on 2nd match today, not before 1 pm.

Looks like the jump in class is showing at the moment - 1-5*...

Jubby no getting any cheap points on serve and is making in roads on Kimmer's serve, but Kimmer is playing the big points well.
Paul's head dropped in the first set after the second break.

L32: (2) Kimmer Coppejans (BEL) WR 207 defeated Paul Jubb WR 339 by 1 & 1

Out classed in the end. Everything was coming back and the harder he tried to hit it the more mistakes Paul made.

Obviously not party to the details of Pauls training plan but I do find it odd that his 1st Challenger is on Clay, he didn't play a tournament last week and he wasn't entered into qualifying so it was MD or nothing. Not sure that's how I would planned things but I'm not a Tennis Coach.
