Lucas-John versus Matt and also Will are playing on Court 9 today in the boys WC singles semis, 3rd and 4th on court so late afternoon ish?


 Matt Knoessen came through in straight sets to back up the Junior World Team Cup triumph with a French Open Boys Singles final spot. 

His JWC team mate, Will Barton, is now playing Belgian top seed Lanterman - good luck to Will!!

 Will fell in straight sets to Lantermann and so it is a Belgium v British final - good luck to Matt Knoessen in that

Alfie and Gordon move comfortably into the mens doubles final and a match with Frenchman Houdet and his Spanish partner, de la Puente. Alfie and Gordon last won a slam doubles title here last year, a 12 month run of no titles, although they were runners up at Wimbledon and the US Open.

Good luck in the final, lads!!

Andy and Greg couldnt quite manage the win, losing an MTB.

So, we have Alfie left in mens singles semis and Alfie/Gordon in mens doubles final, as well as Matt in junior boys singles and all 3 British boys in the boys doubles, which is a straight final.

Alfie plays his singles semifinal on Lenglen tomorrow, third match on. And then the doubles final on court 14, 4th on.

Matt plays the boys final second on court 12 and then Matt and Lantermann play Will and Lucas-John in the boys doubles fourth match on the same court.

Matt Knoessen's boys singles final starts next - Lantermann has a 3-1 head to head over Matt

AO 2026 - RR - Matt on 3 and 4

AO 2026 Final - Alexander won 0 and 2

Belgium Juniors - April 2026 - Alexander won 2 and 4

French Junior event - April 2026 - Alexander won in 3 sets

All of those are on hard court, though, not clay. Nonetheless, Alexander will be favourite, although it could be Matt can get a set, and may even sneak a win!!

Note - I have been calling Alex German all week, he is in fact Belgian so I have edited earlier posts!

Well done our winners 

I see that young Knoesen ( with one 's' ) is just 13 yo.

All the best to Alfie in his singles final.

Alfie sadly went down, 3 and 3.

Still, good week and doubles champions again.
