Marcus and David are playing the whole grass season together, Marcus preferring to take a wild card with him at Wimbly rather than a direct acceptance with a foreigner.

 Presumably in Nottingham next and then maybe Eastbourne?

They will play Queen's if they get a WC, even if it's only for qualies. Marcus said he wants to go for the bigger tournaments.

They won a round there last year.

 Good call - he needs to move to the main tour and 250s plus now he has a decent ranking

 Jake played an awful service game at 5-3 (didn't see the 5-1 game) but regrouped to take the match 7-6(4) 7-6(6).  Oli and Toby are both a break down in the third set, but have breakback points

Well done Jake- done good this week. Bu will be tough.

When you go early in a week and someone you see makes the final, it feels nice- like you are partly responsible! Haha
