QR1: Dan Evans WR 249 v (q6) Lukasz Kubot (POL) WR 136 Another intriguing DC warm-up match, 4th on Grandstand after 10 am local / 15.00 BST, so it probably won't be on before 19.30 BST. Kubot hasn't played a Brit since beating Jamie Murray 5 & 3 in Queen's qualifying list year. He has a 3-2 record v Brit...

QR1: (q3) Dan Cox WR 478 v (WC) Sergey Sukhov (RUS) UNR A seeding in qualifying was the best Dan could realistically hope for when he entered, and he's got a very reasonable draw here, with (5) Artur Chernov (RUS) WR 599 the highest-ranked player standing in the way of a place in the main draw. Good luck!...

We were having a small discussion in the Lexy thread, so I thought we'd have a thread to track the progress (till the end of 2009) of all players born in 1989 and later. I want this thread here and not in the General section just because it involves Evans in a major way. Do players actually care about being t...

Huss and Hutchins are back on the ATP tour this week and are the 2nd seeds in a rather weak looking doubles draw, with no real top pairs involved. They begin against Kevin Kim and Bobby Reynolds, which should be a nice starter for them, but given their run of form, nothing will be too certain for them. Have...
