Oliver Tarvet wins the ITA All-American Championships 2024

 Is that the same thing that Paul Jubb won a couple of years ago? Sorry but I don't know much about the US college scene.

 Not quite - Paul won the NCAA event which is the premium college event, from what Lambda said this is a similar level but in fact acts as a qualifier for the NCAA. Maybe its Indian Wells to the US Open?! 

Thanks Jon.  I've just been back to the other thread and read Lamba's opening comments which explains it all perfectly  Should have done that first instead of being lazy!!!

Ollie Tarvet finished the 2024/25 college season as the highest ranked GB male at No. 5 in the ITA singles rankings, winning 23 matches and officially losing 2 but 1 was by retirement early in the 1st set. His only loss in a completed match this season was in the opening round of the NCAA singles championships in November.

To achieve such a high ranking at a mid-major university is a remarkable achievement and is in part thanks to aggressive scheduling by the Head Coach in the first part of the spring semester to play teams in the "power" conferences where the big ranking points are available.

He said when interviewed towards the end of March that he has every intention to return for his final year. The only thing that will stop him is if something remarkable happens in pros over the summer. He is targeting the individual NCAAs in November as he doesn't feel he has done himself justice in that event in previous years.

With the reputation he has and with his ranking he could - and surely does - get financially lucrative offers from the majors. But he has said he will not transfer from San Diego as he has loyalty and respect for his Head Coach and the faith that he has paid in him.
