Another of those awful matches where one guy scores more points than the other but ends up losing - I really thought Joel had that match...... :::(((

It would have done wonders for his confidence. Hopefully he can take a lot of positives in the end, but I am sure it won't feel that way right now.

L16: Joel Cannell WR 1293 lost to (7) Peter Bothwell (IRL) WR 857 (CH = 641 last November) 3-6 6-4 7-6(3)

Edit

The match lasted over 3 hours. To confirm CD's comment: Points won was in favour of Joel at 123-122

Of course players can be unlucky on the day, but in general I disagree about the awfulness of tennis matches won by the players with less total points.

Tennis has a wonderful scoring system, and in closish matches it can be very much about winning the right points, and that is an ability and a mindset, as against say what you do at a 40-0 point.

I don't mean awfulness for tennis - yes, the scoring system is wonderful - far better than a completely linear thing like swimming or something when the race is often over by half way through and they just see out the rest....

I mean, awful for the person who loses on the day, like Joel.

Such a shame that both Joel and Alexis came within an absolute whisker of making the QFs at this 25k which would have been a big mark on their results sheet.

Guaranteed semi-finalist though, with Ryan v Jonathan.

And Josh P in with a good shout.

Guaranteed GB winners and finalists in the doubles too, with Johnson+ playing Binding/Duncan, and Paris/Jones playing Hoyt+

Great to see Ryan back and fit as he wins the all-brit QF in two sets.
Good week for Binding too
