L32: Harry Wendelken WR 579 defeated (WC) Andrés Santamarta (ESP) UNR by 5 & 0
L16: (6) Fausto Tabacco (ITA) WR 494 (CH = 433 last August) vs Harry Wendelken WR 579
I have only just realised there are in fact two Tabacco brothers, not sure if they are twins? Fausto and Giorgio. They seem to come across British players quite often and both played in the recent Sunderland M25 event.
I had thought it was just one person and wondered how they played our guys quite often, but two of them helps explain that.
I'll avoid making the usual joke at this point in relation to their name. Been done before.

They're not twins: Fausto (21) is the elder by about 15 months, Giorgio being 20, as a quick glance at their profiles on the ATP site shows. They played together in the doubles events at both the Loughborough & the Sunderland M25s last month. Giorgio qualified for the singles main draw in Loughborough, while Fausto was a direct entrant. Neither played in the Sunderland singles event.
