Evans and Cox both had byes in the first round. In the second round, Evans played Alessandro Giannessi [145] of Italy and lost by 76(2) 36 60. Cox beat Eugen Brazdil [67] of Slovakia by 75 62. Cox got a horrible third round draw in the form of third seed Elias [35] and lost by 64 75.
Good luck to the boys in doubles.
El Menshawy lost in the first round to Maximilian Neuchrist of Austria by 75 75. Chaudry had a bye. In the second round, Chaudry beat Ilias Giannakakis of Greece by 26 61 64.
Chaudry now faces the twelfth seed, whose ITF record is far poorer than his. So let's hope for an upset.
Bettles lost in the first round to Alberto Cammarata of Italy by 76 64. Morgan had a bye. In the second round, Morgan beat Lucas Mugevicius of Lithuania by 62 75. In the third round, Morgan beat Alen Salibasic of Bosnia 26 63 75.
Impressive show from Morgan so far and this is a good opportunity for him to crack the top 10. He now faces fifth seed Yaroslav Shyla of Belarus.
Alberto Cammarata is for a 14 year old the most complete athelte I have ever seen on a tennis court. He is impressive & very physically imposing, he is one for the future!! Tough draw for Bettles!!
