Like the fact that the Irish federation had a club tournament to get a quali wildcard. Looks like it was Kirk who won it. Nice idea.

Wild Card Play-Off
25 Jul 2018
Thursday evening, 7pm: Court 1

On Thursday evening there will be a playoff match for a wild card entry to the forthcoming Tennis Ireland Irish Open at CC&LTC. Invitations were extended to our top club singles players and the outcome is a match between Owen Kirk and Morgan Lohan. The winner receives a wild card to the qualifiers for the Irish Open. It will be terrific and add considerable interest to our members to have one of our own club members play in the tournament starting this coming weekend. It is sure be a match of top class tennis and the Tennis Committee look forward to seeing our top players supported on Thursday evening.

That gives us two guaranteed through to the main draw (and the others with good chances) with Ben Draper playing Elliott Farmer, and Ed Harwood playing Sizya.

Play seems to have been weather interrupted.

But Jonathan Binding is leading 6-4 *5-2

And Adam Jones is leading 6-3 2-2


Binding is the man who did the same LTA player/coach course as Olivia Nicholls, I think. The TASS one. With the LTA actually paying to train them as coaches and also pay for them to train, travel and compete half the year.

As an aside, this is the Irish Open according to the ITF site; I understand it is the second oldest tournament in the World, after Wimbledon (maybe Scottish Open is similar age but not played any longer), and has quite a history to it from years ago.

Obviously used to be on grass, nowadays this outdoor carpet is what I would call artificial grass I am guessing?

www.itftennis.com/procircuit/tournaments/men's-tournament/info.aspx

Wiki suggests it isnt the same event, but clearly they are now branding it the Irish Open

 So with two peskies out to Brits, as quite likely, and two Brits still guaranteed, that just leaves young Shaw to bring it on home and get five out of five through to the main draw of the 25k.

The main draw is out.

Josh Paris, Sizya and Mike Shaw have drawn the short straws, playing the top, third and fourth seeds. There's three all-Brit match-ups. And some other interesting possibilities.

And a huge welcome back to Ryan Storrie - do SO hope his injury worries are properly behind him......

Not a particularly strong field for a 25k so hopefully some of our guys can pick up some good points. I am going to stick my neck out (and at risk of jinxing him) go for Evan Hoyt to take the title this week.
