Jonathan Gray lost the third 4-6 :(

The main draw is out, with wildcards to Clay Crawford, Jamie W, Jonnie O'Mara and Jay Clarke.

I don't know much about the two Italians who are the top two seeds, but the rest of the draw is wide open and a chance of going deep for quite a few lower ranked players.

Early wins for Evan over JWH and Lloyd over Scott C, but Toby lost out to the Nº8 seed.

Yeah, that's the second time in recent months (I believe) that Marcus has lost a really close match in a third-set tie-break to a well-ranked player.

Give the kid a wildcard !

I suspect Marcus may have used all his main draw wildcards

JWH v Evan was a win-win match as far as I was concerned, (or a lose-lose match, indeed) - two faves . . .

Great for Lloyd too - keep going, Bob's going to be on your case soon....

Will be tight for Luke to close this one out..... fingers crossed!

And Robbie must be feeling a few butterflies - Viola's played mainly on clay this year, though (and not all too successfully even on that) - and, as has been mentioned, Robbie's been moving along nicely, rather in the shadows of some of the more known names - but even so, can't help feeling there will be a third set here....

Luke into another breaker in a serve dominated match. Only 3 BPs in total so far with Luke leading that stat 2-1. Zero conversions for either player though.

Well done Bambo

Luke dominates the 2nd breaker as well to win 7-6(1) 7-6(3)

Neil up 4-1* in he 2nd.
