If its any consolation, Jacob Fearnley is a set and break up.

Jan crashes out in 5

Well its not looking good for the guys and with the draws they had its a bit bizarre.

Jubb, like Fery yesterday, really should not be losing

For both Jubb and Jan, they had to close it out when they had the chance

Easy to say, I know, but it's SO difficult if the better ranked, more experienced player suddenly gets a second wind because you've missed your chance and effectively given them a second chance

His opponent could not play in the first two sets, looked so uncomfortable on grass. What caused the change? Really gutting if Jubb falls short here.

The men are doing awfully this year, especially in comparison to the women.

Theybold W is such a dramaqueen though

He was clearly having a major sulk, as he often does, almost as though he's offended that any lowly ranked person deigns to play well against him. And then he turns it on a bit, and Paul fluffed the TB.

But still possible - because he can go AWOL too

Jake is doing well (cross fingers)

PJ not out of it yet. 5-5 5th set,

Jajon · Club Coach

Shame he just put a horror game in from 40-15 up, good lord

Danny1312 · Junior player

Jubb has so many times gone from 40-15 or alike to put himself under pressure.

Jan · Hall of fame

Oh my word, some exceedingly close matches.
I can only follow scores at the moment.
Come on lads!

So near & yet so far! cry I doubt that it will be of any consolation to any of the lads, but Seb Korda (20) has crashed out to Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, in as a lucky loser (replacing Alejandro Davidovich), in five sets.
