ESP F2 - Calvia 10K (clay)
Permalink  

A remarkably strong field for a 10K sees Morgan having to qualify.


QR1: (q4) Morgan Phillips WR 611 v Migual Olaso-de la Rica (ESP) WR 1049
QR1: Robert Dee WR 1541 v Andrea Aloisi (ITA) WR 1117


Both Brits are 3rd on court at about 11.00 GMT on Saturday.


The winners of the two QR1 matches above will play each other. I can't see Robert being one of them, even if he is facing a player called Andrea!

When you look at his opponents' rankings (1117 for Aloisi and 1102 fir Zay c.f. Morgan's 610), it's not quite so impressive that he made such heavy weather of beating Zay, but even so, at least he qualified.


As you say, it seems harsh that he still needs to win another match to get a point, especially when you see the draw he's got:


R1: (Q) Morgan Phillips WR 611 v (2) Jose-Antonio Sanchez-de Luna (ESP) WR 337


Unfortunately, Morgan got 'rewarded' for qualifying with an absolutely rubbish draw. :( He has met J-A S-dL three times, in 2002, 2005 and 2006, and has lost each time, though their last two matches went the distance.


Morgan is not due to play on Monday.

A quick aside!


Phil Barlow has teamed up with Spains Andres Garriga to get a WC for doubles.


They've drawn another WC pair in R1. Best chance Barlow will get this year!

Good luck Morgan, does anyone know if he even comes home for the clay court futures event in Bournemouth, or is he just not a brit at all?



Does he live in Spain?
