For the avoidance of any confusion, although Johnny Aitch and I share similar names etc, we are one and the same person - we might be doppelgangers, but we have never met so I dont know!

I just didnt want anyone to think I was using a second moniker! Ha!!

PS But thanks to Johnny for his ongoing support on PoM

Nominations

1. Matthew Rankin - for making it on to the WR rankings for the first time with a L32 in in Egypt, and still a junior.
2. Jamie Murray - for reaching the milestone of 500 wins on the ATP Tour with his performances in Paris.
3. Will Jansen - reversing the result last week and taking out the No.2 seed, then consolidating with another straight sets win to make the SF, done whilst still a junior (GB's top ranked junior currently); won the M15 Kuwait doubles title
4. Lloyd Glasspool - for reaching the World Tour Finals for the first time and, in the process, reaching the semis in Paris Masters with wins over Dan, Jamie and their respective partners
5. Eliz Maloney - for reaching the Shrewsbury W100 QF beating WR 150 and then giving WR 49 a very decent match, helping her move into the top 400 in both singles and doubles. Winner of UKPL week 7.
6. Sarah Tatu - 17 year old twice reached QF in Castellon W15 and Nules W15 as an unranked qualifier
7. Neal Skupski - Winner of the Paris Masters guaranteeing being part of the Nº1 pair for the entire season and reaching the WR1 spot (albeit shared).
8. Toby Samuel - winner of back to back USA M15 singles titles, and a doubles title, will enter the GB top 20 and probably overall top 540 from only 7 counters.
9. BJK GB Team - Outstanding 3-0 victory over Spain being under dogs and first time since 1981 in the semi finals; Dart had two outstanding wins playing at no 1 for GB in the BJK cup, beating Badosa and Tomljanovic, Nicholls/Barnett had two doubles wins over strong opponents; and Watson had a strong singles win over her Spanish higher ranked opponent, as the team won 5 out of 9 rubbers

Very definitely the business end of the last PoM of the year. Itll be end of January 2023 before we have another one and their are 10 days left in this one.

it feels easy to overlook Julian and Henrys achievements and take them for granted - 2 challenger titles in one month is worth of recognition
