It's a nice-looking website, but only seems to be for the veterans event they have running at the same time. Or do you know different?

Heres hoping that we can have some later summer cheer for the Brits here....

The website says that the live scoring and live streaming coverage will start on Monday ! to the Graz tournament organisers for providing this, it's a fantastic feature.

Jonny Marray should have an easy win over wildcard Herbert Jerich who's never played a match before on the pro tour. He has a straightforward path through to the final qualifying round where he's likely to play France's Gary Lugassy, seeded 2nd and ranked 309. Jonny leads him 1-0 on head-to-heads. Jonny played this challenger last year, losing in straight sets in rd1.

James Auckland's rd1 match against 20 year old Austrian Patrick Gamauf should be straightforward given that Gamauf is ranked over 1000 places lower and has only ever won 2 main draw matches.

It'll be interesting to see the result of Delgado-Hutchins, I'm not sure who to predict as the winner. This'll be Jamie's 1st match on hard courts since April and it remains to be seen whether he's still feeling the psychological effects of his DC defeats. Hutchins is ranked about 70 places lower, he had those two superb wins in rd1 of the Manchester and Nottingham challengers but he's struggled since Nottingham, losing in rd1 of Ikley and Wrexham. They've played twice before: Hutchins won 6-4, 6-3 in rd1 of GB F8 in 2003 but Jamie won 6-1, 6-2 in rd1 of Surbiton qualifying on grass this year. I have a feeling that Jamie will sneak this one in 3.

Looking ahead to a possible Auckland-Delgado or Auckland-Hutchins rd2 match:
James has played Jamie twice before, the head-to-head is 1-1. James won 7-5, 3-6, 6-1 in rd2 of the 2003 Wrexham challenger and Jamie won 7-6, 7-5 in rd1 of Queens qualifying in 2004. James has never played Ross before.

It'll be interesting to see how rusty James is as he hasn't played singles since Manchester Challenger in June.

Apparently all the matches yesterday were completely rained off. Qualifying rds 1 and 2 will be today and the final qualifying round will be tomorrow so hopefully we'll get live streaming and scoring for that.

QR1: (q3) James Auckland WR 435 beat Patrick Gamauf (AUT) WR 1557 by 3 & 2

He will play the winner of the Delgado/Hutchins match next.

Great win for James It must feel good to have a nice easy first round match and get used to the courts and conditions without being overly tested.

He will play Jamie Delgado who as predicted [] beat Ross Hutchins in a close 3 setter 4-6, 7-5, 6-2

Auckland-Delgado should be on court now. As posted earlier in this thread, ames has played Jamie twice before, the head-to-head is 1-1. James won 7-5, 3-6, 6-1 in rd2 of the 2003 Wrexham challenger and Jamie won 7-6, 7-5 in rd1 of Queens qualifying in 2004. My money's on James in 3.

Jonny Marray whitewashed the unranked Austrian wildcard, the first time he's inflicted a double bagel since the New Delhi challenger in April 2003. He's up against Croatia's Antonio Sancic in rd2, Sancic won in 2 breakers in rd1. He's 17 and is unranked, this is his first tournament since February and he's never qualified for a future or a challenger before. He's ranked 245 in juniors. I predict Jonny to win in 2.

It's a shame Ross Hutchins and Jonny Marray haven't been able to continue their partnerships with Josh Goodall and Martin Lee since the Nottingham challenger. Looking at the draw, Auckland and Delgado have to be massive favourites to win it and hopefully with Hutchins and Marray seeded 2, it'll be an all-Brit final.
