Irritating that the LL spot has gone to Lajal and not a Brit
Its just a draw though isnt it? Do you suggest it was fixed? I dont believe that for one minute!
How did you get from his comment he thought it was fixed?
Thank you, seagull !
I don't follow you, Jon, sorry - where does it being fixed come into it?

Lajal got it because you do a draw and the spot goes to who wins the draw, which was Lajal, hence the spot went to Lajal, which is what I wrote - and that was irritating

Hi CD - you will see I have apologised. For some reason I read it as interesting as opposed to irritating - I was on my phone and my eyesight didnt pick up the correct word.

I do apologise and I know you know the rules etc - hence why I thought your comment was (wrongly!) interesting.

Peace?

Ollie Tarvet came through nicely

Good stuff. I just wanted to see that sort of form from Oli and I think he should now have already sealed a Wimbledon Q WC over some higher ranked players.

It's going to be a tough choice among those much more reguiar circuit players, many of whom are very closely ranked. A week for making important final statements.

When will Oli turn pro?

Im still not sure if I will go along Wednesday or Thursday but Wednesday looks tempting with several Brits into the last 16 already.

The weather all week looks abysmal though so not sure what action will take place - not much it would seem if the weather predictions are accurate.

That is correct. And his university graduation was in May, so I would assume he's officially pro full-time now.
