 Stuart lost, 1-6 6-1 6-1

Tim got to be about JWR 60 in juniors, but now - age 26 - has still never broken into the top-1000 ATP

 I've always had the impression that funds aren't too much of an issue in his family

Which is not a criticism or to be snide, I've always been a supporter of Stuart, as he's come up the French ranks, and been a bit of an outsider in GB 

But not many 'ordinary' families move from South Africa to Jersey, and then send their young son to a tennis academy in St Malo, and get coached by Enquist in Aix, etc etc
