The Trofeo Bonfiglio is the strongest ITF Junior event outside the Grand Slams, with Mark Ceban and Hollie Smart only just gaining direct entry.  Rhys Lawlor and Ophelia Korpanec-Davies both lost in final qualifying, but Ophelia picked up a Lucky Loser slot. Mark has a rematch against the South African he beat at the Australian Open.  Ophelia takes on the Chinese player who knocked Daniella Britton out last week - she went on to reach the final, losing out to Daphnee Mpetshi Perricard.

Tomorrow Mark is second on Centre (first match 14 9am BST) with live scores available here  and a stream for that court here

Boys R1 (L48)

Mark Ceban v Connor Doig (RSA)

Girls R1 (L48)

(LL) Ophelia Korpanec-Davies v Yu Jun Lin (CHN)

(LL) Ru Xi Wu (CHN) v Hollie Smart

I watched a bit of Ophelia's first match today - and she was playing nicely - toughed out the end well

Obviously she lost in the next match, which I didn't see, nor Rhys' (they've only got 2 courts on livestream, or only have two for the qualis)

Dani Britton withdrew from this event (and next week's) so may well be injured - hope she's OK for RG

Mark retrieved the break but still went down. His day didn't get any better as he also lost in doubles (as did Rhys+ and Ophelia+). Hollie is up first and Ophelia second tomorrow on unstreamed courts, as far as I can tell

Boys R1 (L48)

Connor Doig (RSA) d. Mark Ceban 6-2 7-5

A very disappointing tournament from a British perspective, with the sole victory so far being from Hollie+ in doubles who play the second seeds in round 2

Girls R1 (L48)

Yu Jun Lin (CHN) d. (LL) Ophelia Korpanec-Davies 5-7 6-2 6-2
(LL) Ru Xi Wu (CHN) d. Hollie Smart 6-3 6-4
