Not come across the name of Oscar Brown before, in juniors or seniors - anyone got any info on him?


I've been aware of his existence since he started playing fairly regularly in Futures events in June 2024, which I presume is when he graduated from Duke University (a private university based in Durham, NC).  He's 24 & from Sevenoaks & qualified for the main draw for the first time at the M15 in Monastir in December last year, since when he's steadily risen up the rankings to his present 1344 (CH was 1309 last month).  He had a wild card at the Nottingham M25 in May, but lost in the first round to Henry Searle (2).  He qualified for the main draw in Aldershot last week, only to lose to Tiago Cação (7) in the first round.  He's faring much better this week, bless him!  smile

Unusual to get top 4 seeds through at this level, I think.

Sofa score shows this event as indoor hard? Is it indoors? Error presumably?

 Definitely - tbh we never have rain in the UK so hardly a surprise, right?

 Much easier than most of us would have expected. Well done, Charles, good week

 Tarvet seems to have been struggling in various of his matches this week

Everybody I know who had been down there this week had money (either literally or figuratively) on Charlie
