Oliver Golding returns to Junior action for the first time since the Australian Open, and may wish he hadn't bothered, as his first task is to subdue the resurgent Carlos Boluda-Purkiss.

Tennis Europe U14 round-up: Weeks 13/14
(Preview)
Even though the 1995 boys had a successful year with 4 in or around the Tennis Europe top 10 the category 1 titles eluded them. During the past two weeks over the Easter holidays there have been two such events with British success at last. The first week in Livorno, Italy, had a strong field, but Joshua S...

Boys: Cap D'Ail, France - Grade 2 (Week 14)

British interest here is not likely to last long (in singles at least), but we do have two entrants. If Dan Cochrane manages to get past the 2008 Orange Bowl U14 winner then he will probably be up against the top seed R1 (L64) (WC) John Harrison Richmond (USA) v Daniel Cochrane (GBR) James Ireland (GBR)...

Boys & Girls: Dunlop Japan Open - Grade 1 (Week 13)

Jennifer Ren's form in South Africa has given her a top 8 seeding, and hence better chance of picking up the big quarter-final points, in the weakest of the four Asian Grade 1s. James Marsalek just sneaked a low seeding, but will probably have to beat last week's semi-finalist Ben Wagland to reach the q...

Boys & Girls: AJC Warm Up, Nigeria - Grade 2 (Week 13)

This is something of a rarity - a high grade African junior tournament not in one of the Mediterranean countries or South Africa. The reason appears to be that Nigeria is hosting the African Junior Closed Championships next week (hence the tournament title). A quartet of Brits made it here trying to t...

Jennifer Ren has flown over from South Africa and joins Jessica as a low seed.

As a result there are few Europeans left around, but Natalie Beazant has the misfortune to land in the same quarter as the best one here - top seed Ulrikke Eikeri from Norway. Sh...
