Madadman · Masters Series Champion

Ryan loses 6-3 6-4, and probably completely puts any chance of a MD Wimbledon WC to bed.

L16: (2) Lloyd Harris (RSA) WR 95 defeated (WC) Arthur Féry WR 249 by 6-4 7-6(5) hmm

Young Arthur seems to have given Harris a bit of a run for his money.

OOP shows that the plan is to get through R2 and QF's tomorrow and be through to the semis for Friday in singles and doubles. Back on schedule. Not sure if that means the doubles final will push to Saturday, hope so as I will get to see a bit more tennis!

Play is effectively half a round behind as of today but they will make that up today and finish the event well on schedule with some lovely sunny weather forecast over the next week or 10 days.

Good to see at last!

Charlie started really well but lost his way in the second set and looks like this will go to a final set

Of the quarter finalists, 4 will be guaranteed to be French

Found his way almost back in the second ser ( from *0-4 to 3-4* deuce ) before losing it again.

6-3 3-6 ...

And he is a break down at 0-3 in the third. Maybe a week too far for Charlie.

So, that is the Brits gone from Ilkley mens singles.

Harold Mayot joins his female compatriot, Ponchet, in the finals day fun at Ilkley; waiting to hear his opponent, Goffin a set up 7-5 last I checked

Goffin into the final, looking forward to seeing him.

Sadly no Brits to cheer on today, but looking forward to seeing Goffin and Mayot. If CD reads this, what is the take on Mayot - he seems a talented player and this week will take him top 100.
