Hmmm....Boggo beat Jeremy Chardy 1 and 2 indoors and Chardy won junior Wimbledon in 2005 and can serve at 140mph plus. Against Evans it'd be something like 1 and 1.

Evans is improving fast and is a great prospect but he'd be out of his depth in a challenger at the moment, top 250 players are likely to have too much power for him right now. Best for him to prove himself at futures level first and work steadily upwards, hopefully he can get some wins in 10Ks and 15Ks and end the year close to the top 1000.

That was Auckland at his very best against Tursunov.....but Arka if you look at the stats, Evans lost 4 and 0 to Rasmus Norby who's in the 600s indoors earlier this year and to several players outside the top 1000 last autumn, he's obviously not yet ready to compete against top 250 players in challengers. To say that he could give Boggo (who's good enough to be top 100) a decent match is a bit daft

Norby is seriously under ranked, as with the game he has got he should be a lot higher than he is. Norby has a massive serve, and is very good at the net, and also is very strong on his passing shots, so would give a lot of players a tough match indoors

I agree, I don't think Panda Bear realises the difference between the pace that someone like Boggo can generate off the serve and groundstrokes compared to Cox and Evans. They may be top juniors but challenger level tennis is a completely different ball game. I think they'd maybe get 2 games in each set at most, could be at least one bagel if Boggo was playing full out.

Lu is out. Alex will be the third seed.



Maybe Waske will play doubles at Monte Carlo?

who do we think will go the furthest of the 3? i would normally say boggo, but if he does well in valenica could be a qucik transition and i think bloomers has a great chance to go deep, and of the back of an extended indoor training period for the DC tie. i am not sure on goodalls form/indoor game.

will have to wait for the draws i guess. boggo v bloomers final would be nice

I'm afraid - Josh will not be seeded here

Since lists came out he has been overtaken by Jones, Bohli, Vico and Tourte
