In the Tier 1 at Felixstowe

QF
James Story [1] v Alfie King (16yo)
Oliver Hague [4] v Ben Gusic-Wan [7] (16yo)
Christof Schaertlin Coffey [Q] v Matthew Rutter [3]
Dylan Davies (16yo) v Tom Hands [2]

The women's draw looked quite exciting a couple of weeks ago with a mix of good juniors and US college players but most of those I was excited about withdrew.
There have been a few retirements, including No1 seed Given Roach, leaving just 2 seeds left in the QF

Violeta Martinez v Flora Johnson (17yo)
Hep Oluwadare [4] (16yo) v Amelie Brooks (17yo)
Marelie Raath [Q] (17yo) v Nao Nishino
Dani Hack [5] v Hollie Smart (15yo)

Violeta is an 20 year old American US College player who was based at Rafa's academy as a junior and is currently at University of Illinois. I do not know what her connection to GB is, if she has any, as I'm sure she hasn't come over here just to play our domestic scene. She hasn't any record of playing in any our domestic events before and has no association with any county on her profile.

Christof Schaertlin Coffey has appeared in a few recent events at the sharp end of the week- what is his back story and is he a name to look out for in ITF events going forwards ?

Felixstowe

In the quarters wins for James, Ben, Matthew and Tom, and Violeta, Hep, Nao and Dani

More retirements in the semis
SF
Ben Gusic-Wan [7] (16yo) d. James Story [1] 2-0 ret.
Tom Hands [2] d. Matthew Rutter [3] 6-0 6-3

Still waiting for 1 result in the Women's SFs.
Hep Oluwadare [4] (16yo) d. Violeta Martinez 1-6 2-2 ret.
Nao Nishino v Dani Hack [5]

Not sure what this means for Ben and Hep's participation in the J300 with them still being here at the sign in deadline.

Hep is still on the list

I'm assuming she signed in at Roehampton but is playing the Tour event (which is allowed as it's not an ITF event) and will turn up with a MD wildcard for R1 here

 So Hep lost the first set 6-1 and then her opponent retired?

Dani Hack having won the first set became the 7th retirement of the week. Score added above.

The juniors showed the seniors how its done.

Ben won 6* & 1
*The site is showing Ben lost the first set 6-7 but as its only showing 2 sets I've assumed the first set score is the wrong way around

Hep won 5 & 3.

On to Roehampton for them.

Lovely to see Grace Piper back on court in the UK - she's playing Given Roach in the final tomorrow (although Given has won all her matches in three sets)

In the men's, Matt Rutter plays Anthony Weingarten/Anthony Wright (result not up)

 At the beautifully named Giffnock - I have visions of babbling brooks and heather blowing in the breeze. It is probably on the outskirts of some industrial estate!
