Kyle won the first 6-3

Very close in the second but ended up losing the TB 7-6(5)

Is Marcus entered anywhere this week?

I see that Kyle had 3 MPs in all at 6-3 5-2* up. He was also 4-1* up in the TB.

Now 2-2* in the third set

Wasnt down on any of the early entries for challengers this week. Only challenger not to release the doubles draw is the Bolivian one but Id be surprised to see him turn up there. Looks like a week of.

Another win for Kyle. Hopefully another step back in the right direction.

No - Kyle lost, unfortunately - your emoji is right but the 'defeated' isn't

Sorry, Rich. My mistake: I forgot to reverse the order of the players, although the set scores were the right way round. Sadly, Kyle, who started the match very brightly, eventually lost it.

Oh dear. Still not happening then for Kyle. Should he drop down to the lowest itf's for a few tournaments just to see if he can get a run of matches.
