Interesting interview with Barry Flatman in The Sunday Times. Very welcome evidence of contrition on the lad's part. The LTA's "tough love" policy seems to have claimed another victim!

Jamie Murray teams up with Kevin Ullyett here (Max taking a rest after Davis Cup duty?) and they are the second seeds. Tough first round match in Julian Knowle and Jurgen Melzer.

He was on the Alt list for the Florianopolis Challenger this week, but in fact, making another inspired choice, Edward has returned to Africa to play a Future on the Spanish enclave of Melilla, where he is the top seed in qualifying.

This week marks the passing of the first quarter of our season, and I see from my records that some 21 players who were ranked at the end of the last season - after excluding those known to all as having retired - have yet to appear this year.
