Thanks to DF for the Friday update britishtennis.activeboard.com/t66034135/who-has-that-friday-feeling/

If any of these or any other players come on anyone's radar as a Player of the Month nomination, add them here - nominations have just next week to run

I also see that one or two players already nominated (Jodie, Mark Ceban, Mattias) may need a narrative update later this week, if the relevant nominator is able to pick that up it would be appreciated (I updated Katie B to comment on her winning the most grass matches by a Brit this season as I felt this added something to her record)

Oh good ! I hadnt been following closely this week as its been busy with work. Saw a few doom and gloom posts so feared it was a quiet week!

And I missed out Freya and Ali in the WTA 250 in Lausanne. 60 points for reaching the QF's in a 250 tournament

indiana · Tennis legend

Yes, there are at least a couple of prematurely gloomy posts around.
