2022 British Player of the Season Vote - Round One, Group B
Permalink  

The second of 4 Round One groups, 7 of 28 players. 

Vote for the player of these that you feel is the Player of the Season - if you feel someone in another group is more deserving, don't worry - please still vote here and we will see as the field whittles down who is the overall player of the season. There are very thin margins:

Our seven players in Group B are summarised below. Rankings as of today (if inaccurate, please advise); Win Loss record taken from ITF site Sunday 4th December (again advise if you feel it is materially wrong); Tournie wins listed. 

I haven't done any colour narrative such as age, or big individual wins or overcoming trauma etc etc. I will leave that to your views, these are just the facts. But if you have something you would like to add to support your player, please, please write it down in a post.

And, finally, please say who you vote for any why!!

RULES

Top 3 plus ties will progress to the semis.

Votes will close in 48 hours, ie 2pm Wednesday. 

Players with zero votes will not be able to progress ie if only one or two players get a vote, then fewer than 3 players will progress to the next round

The three I considered as possibles included Paul Jubb and Katie Swan. For Paul, I felt he didnt sustain a whole season but he did do marvellously and I want to see where he gets to. I also considered Katie, but felt although it was a good season for her, taking her to new highs, she didnt have a real standout height.

So I voted with Julian and Henry - their record is outstanding and, although done largely at second tier, getting 10 titles as a pair and more separately is very , very impressive

 Ah it's OK. I somehow thought someone was there that isn't so it's OK here and that'll be Julian & Henry then.

Julian and Henry will probably win this section comfortably, if not the whole POS. So I'm going to vote for Katie Swan !

 thanks Indy and TA - the Katie vote hasnt taken hold yet, but I think she could well be a challenger in this group and also maybe overall.

I think the top 3 or 4 in most groups will become quite straightforward (although Group A is all over the place) but it will become very tight in the semis onwards!!

No contest in my eyes here. Julian and Henry. Outstanding year and that record of doubles titles in one season. Superb.

Group C may be a few minutes later than planned, perhaps 6.30. Lets see. Facing heavy traffic on my drive !

Same as other poll. Caught between not voting or going for a singles player that I feel has performed well this season. Voted for Katie Swan.

Singles is the tougher form of the sport. Swan gets my vote in this group, a big step forward in her tennis this year, taking charge of her matches.
