Nominations:

1. Daniella Britton - winning the J300 US Open warm up event in Canada. Seeded 6th, with some battling wins. Represents her biggest world ranking title to date and should see her rise to comfortably inside the top 30 and top British girl in the rankings.

2. Rhys Lawlor - seeded 15th, reached the final of the J300 in Canada where he lost narrowly in the final. Also won the doubles title here in tandem with Mark Ceban. Great week and sets himself up for the USO very well!

Happy if anyone wants to add to my narratives!

As usual the British doubles players keep the flag flying in NYC with our consistent performers Cash / Glasspool, Salisbury, Patten,, Skupski supplemented by Choinski and Fery/ Paris . And not forgetting Dart/ Lumsden. Hopefully some September candidates emerge from them all.

Fantastic sweep by Matthew , hard to surpass that ! You are looking at a singles draw of 8 players and doubles draw of 4 but as the saying goes you can only beat whats in front of you and the level of players like Matthew is fantastic.
