Funnily enough, I spoke to Jonny Marray at Nottingham and said there was a challenger in canada that had a really low DA level last year and that he should enter it, and obviously he failed to heed my advice, honestly what can you do ?
Richard has entered that challenger and is no 5 on the entry list so a great chance to pick up more points.
I bet Jonny spoke to Richard a few days later and said "here's a good one. There's this crazy guy called Bladetiger who reckons that instead of playing on our favourite surfaces indoors in Europe in November, we should fly off to Canada and play a load of tournaments on slower surfaces over there. Richard probably laughed and then checked later and realised that this Bladetiger actually had a point !! "
Goodall (GBR) v Stoppini (ITA) 6-4 6-5* - Josh saved 2 bps in the last game, now has 15-30 on Stoppini's serve Lacko (SVK) v (2) Bogdanovic (GBR) 4-6 *1-2

Marray/Nielsen a set down to Motti/Vico but now 5-2 up in the 2nd
Superb win for Josh !!!
Stoppini can be dangerous as we know from his straight sets win over Boggo in Orleans and he also beat Agassi this year. Hopefully Alex can come through, a Boggo-Goodall match would make for an intriguing rd2 clash
