Riedi and Rocha rtd after losing the opening set - both in singles still. Not sure if others may similarly pull out from doubles, havent studied the draw too closely

Riedi's actually given Bu, an ALT, a walkover into the quarters, so perhaps he's picked up yet another injury.

 Interesting thanks - as an aside, Bu maybe an alt but he won the Birmingham grass challenger last week, so is a good player on grass. I saw him a bit yesterday when there and he played well.

QF:  David Stevenson & Marcus Willis CR 187 (119+68) vs Ugo Blanchet & Kyrian Jacquet (FRA/FRA) CR 1479 (740+739)

Despite their lowly CR, Blanchet & Jacquet dismissed the third seeds, Barrientos & Behar (admittedly probably more competent clay court players), by 3 & 4 earlier...

Solid rain again now in this neck of the woods.

I am looking at the forecast and it looks like tomorrow will be rainy, Sunday clear. What is hard to see is them getting 4 rounds of play done in 2 days, assuming they dont get any play today on the grass.

I would have thought they need to start looking at moving singles indoors this afternoon, there would be time if they started now to get 16 round 2 mens and womens singles matches played - they have 5 courts and were using 4 of them yesterday

Are they matches going to be playing indoors now due to weather? It's Friday and surely it will be difficult to finish tournament on time (Sunday)

It would make sense as the schedule is getting jam packed.

Sounds windy out there and it is definitely windy where I am. Nonetheless, Toby seems to be happy enough with it and has a decent scoreline against similarly ranked Holmgren.
