 Ah pity, but our top 4 ranked players, in 3 partnerships, are through to the L16

David is now live ranked 86 as against his existing CH of WR 98. Marcus ( replacing 50 points with 50 points ) is for now live ranked 63 as against his CH of WR 64.

Hadn't appreciated that there was not one break in Henry and Harri's match, strong serving from both teams.

Suspect that will be a theme on the quick, baked grass we now have. H and H are happy with that and Julian and Lloyd have shown they like this type of tennis as well. Come on lads!

5-7 first set for Henry and Harri, although break up second set. Was going on serve most of the match. Henry and Harri pride themselves on secure service games on grass with the odd break or tie break being the game plan. Being broken first set wasnt the plan!

They saved 2 BPs in that 6th game and then broke in game 7.

Into a MTB decider.
