Re the qualifying entrants, and the large-ish number of byes, it's interesting to see the number who have entered the Frinton British Tour event this week, instead of giving the Frinton ITF 10k qualifiers a go.
ATP-ranked players such as Alex Jhun, for instance, and some decent youngsters, such as James Ling . . .
NB Just to confirm that the Wildcards in the 10K main draw went to Ed, Evo, Tom F and Evan Hoyt.

I Have a funny feeling that Marcus may well have a point to prove to the LTA regarding not getting a wildcard and will have a good run over the next three - four weeks.

Gabb is a set up, Willis a break up
Little bit concerned about Dan Cox though - he's doing OK but not really in a great place, compared with this time last year (when it was all on the up, so to speak).
