Main draw

http://www.atpworldtour.com/tennis/en/common/TrackIt.asp?file=/1/posting/2009/835/mds.pdf

Ouanna isn't the worst player than Boggo could have drawn, but there were a lot of better draws as well, but when you're unseeded, you have to take whatever draw comes to you.

Ouanna hasn't done anything special this year, but had a good end to last season which got him a wild card to Paris, so he can obviously play indoors.

And a potential second round clash with Stakhovsky could be interesting....

There's definately live scores available for this, and there are rumours that there is live streaming of at least one court on the website, so hopefully we'll have a chance to see Boggo play.

What wouldn't the Count give for Boggo to get through to R2 and beat Stakh? smile.gif

as king kev would say 'i'd love it' biggrin.gif

(and don't say you wouldn't too)

would be interesting to see how the papers would handle such a situation too.

however Ouanna is solid,so lets hope Alex can see his way through.

i think they had live streaming on 2 courts last year, and there is talk on mtf of streaming on some tennis website

Two excellent live streams from the tournament website or via atdhe.net. Tipsy beat Pless in the shortest three set match ever and on the other court Bubka & Stakhovsky are a set down in the doubles and are having a few arguements about the way things are going and throwing their rackets. Good news for the DC tie that! There's another doubles match on and then Aucks is playing btw.

Aucks is on the live stream now. I think he is one of the ones in black at the far end.

Brands holds and then some excellent returning from Aucks in particular plus an easy volley missed by the oppos see them break. Aucks then holds to 15.

Auckland/Brands 3-0* Levy/Warburg

ATP scoreboard had Auckland serving first when he served an ace at 4-0.

If that's right, then Auckland is the taller of the two and the one without the stripes on his black shirt (although has the yellow strip on his back)

They take the first set 6-1 though :)

Thanks for finding these streams smile.gif

1st set Aucks/Brands 6-1 - if anyone's just starting to watch, James is the shorter (at 6'1") of the two players in blue, his partner Daniel Brands is 6'5".

Edit: so the ATP scoreboard was wrong (see FD's post) unless the ITF site has the wrong height for Brands. The shorter one looks more like Aucks to me though.

Edit 2: It just said DF BRA when the taller of the two was serving so maybe the ATP scoreboards has righted itself.

Brands is serving now according to the scoreboard (after the DF), and he is the one who I had down as Auckland, so I guess the ATP made a mistake when saying Auckland served the ace.

Yes, thank you that is what I thought. I was going on appearance not the LS btw. It did throw me when it said ace Auckland.

Serving order is Levy - Brands - Warburg - Auckland by my reckoning.

Auckland/Brands 6-1, 2-2*
