Roland Garros qualies

(Preview)
As seagull said in the "Happy birthday Boggo" thread, the qualies draw is being made tonight and Alex should be 19th seed.
Arvind Parmar is also playing and hoping for his 3rd pro win on clay.
Martin Lee is too far down the alternates list to have a chance of getting in, he's still 18th.

He's wasted no time looking for results eh? Feldgate sacked, and replaced for the time being with old Batesy. Others gone too, I will update this when I find a news source. What do you think? My first impressions are good ones, but i'll have to think about it.
