Bloomers on the skids already:  *0-4 against Harrison.

Things looking better for Ed Corrie:  *4-2 against Olin.

Weird!  Both matches disappeared off the LS while I wasn't looking, though the scores in both appeared to be frozen for a while... confuse

JWH could do nothing right after the two DF's should have gifted him the first set tie break. I was impressed with his temperament and the time he took over every situation - he clearly has potential with a big serve. Bloomers blitzed by Harrison in the first but he regrouped well despite a troublesome foot to make the second set TB. DF to go 3-1 down plus close line call to go 5-1 did not help but Harrision was on fire during those last 8 points looking like a top 50 prospect. May now be the man to beat here at just 18 years old.

I'm rather suprised that nobody has mentioned Ed Corrie this week.  He has lost only one set in eight matches, and that was to the Harrison boy who everyone thinks is destined for greatness.  He has beaten some highly ranked players and seems to be getting on with business without any drama.  I make him a strong favourite against Dan this afternooon, but I I'm not sure sure he'll beat Harrison again.  You learn far more in defeat than in victory, and somehow the mindset is different. Also, I bet Harrison has a coach with him who has been watching Ed play....

Big finish from @edcorrie7. 7-6 6-2. That's 9 in a row, going for 10!

So Ed vs Christian Harrison in the final for the second week in a row. So we know last week was no fluke, that's for sure!

Well done Ed. Great start to the season. His only loss was a tight 3 setter in the QF of Glasgow, then 9 straight wins.

Really good follow up week from Ed. Seems to have a good attitude and striving to make the most of his talents.

He will be into the GB top 10 on Monday week. Hopefully another final win, but a great start to the year whatever.

Fair amount of comment on Mr Corrie in the threads over the past few weeks. Certainly has made a very good start to the year. All the best to him for the final!
