I was playing last night and something bizarre happened: my partner span his racket "rough or smooth?" only for it to land edge on! Has anyone else had that happen or heard of it it happening? I just wish it was on video, we'd make a fortune on Utube.... Steve

Boggo is up this week for playing in Athens and has been rewarded with a nightmare of a draw. He plays 2nd seed and World Number 49 Phillip Petzschner in the 1st round. Petzschner has been in good form reaching the last 16 of Monte Carlo knocking out Melzer and Garcia Lopez before falling to Andy's conque...

Dr No is likely to be seeded in the main draw here but oddly the two Brits who are doing well in Madrid this week are not down to play here - Meatball withdrew on 3 April and Morgan Phillips didn't enter in the first place. I wonder if one or both of them are intending to try to qualify for the Rome Challenger....

QR1: Josh Milton WR 539 v (q6) Sebastian Rieschick (GER) WR 423 Wardy, Evo, Baker and Josh were all on the alts list here (1, 3, 6 & 10 respectively) and the top seed in qualifying was the 13th alt for the MD, so I guess it's just about possible that they all scraped in -- Edited by steven on Saturday 10t...

Andy and Hutch have recieved a wild card into the doubles and they will face Cermak/Mertinak in the first round. The Bryans await the winner in round two. OK draw but their opponents are at their most comfortable on clay. Edit: I've just noticed this is on the OOP for tomorrow, fifth and last on Court Cen...

Richard Bloomfield has had an injection into the disc in his back that has troubled him for the last 14 months. The injection proved to be the best option for the 26 year-old, who was considering surgery which would have resulted in a lengthy lay-off. Two weeks after this treatment Bloomfield was able...

I had a feeling this pair would turn up here before they move on to Korea and I'm really glad they did. The qualifying field is really weak here especially for a $100,000 torny and Chris should definitely qualify. Inglot has it a bit harder with Okun lingering in the final round, but Inglot can just abou...

Guess who! (From Sporting Life) Bogdanovic has become something of a byword for the failings in British tennis - a talented youngster of whom great things were expected but who has failed to live up to expectations. Seven consecutive singles defeats in Davis Cup saw the 25-year-old ostracised by fo...

I have been assuming (rashly) that the people running the ATP BC for Miami knew when the main draw was going to be and have been saying, like them, that "Picks Open Tuesday Afternoon ET on Mar 23 for the Sony Ericsson Open", but it turns out that for Miami (unlike IW but like Miami last year, now...
