Jim's got a very nice draw, I would be very surprised if his rd1 opponent causes his problems and then in rd2 he'd face either another unranked Bulgarian qualifier or a Serbian ranked 937.

Doubles draw is now out, Jim's partnering Sweden's Robert Gustafsson and they're 2nd seeds.

He's currently at a career high of 311 in doubles, doesn't have much to defend during the autumn so with some great results he should have a good chance of making the top 200.

It's a shame he hasn't been able to resume his promising partnership with Neil Bamford, recently. Qualifying for Wimbledon earlier this year was extremely impressive.

Jim had a bit of a shocker in rd1, losing to the unranked Shiskov 1-6, 6-3, 6-1

What went wrong after the 1st set !

He plays his rd1 doubles match today
