Thanks cya. Now this also frustrates me - I got to the order of play and entry lists through the tour event series page above, from the major tennis events. Which is fine. the route you (cya) has posted is via competitions. It has basically the same info, in a different structure, but has the draws whereas the tour event page doesnt. Why a) do they have separate routes to similar info and b) on the tour events page, why dont they have the draws linked??!

So frustrating!

ATP site as a structure is much easier to navigate, LTA seems, to me, to always make things harder!

cya · Strong Club Player

I agree. The site is like a maze , frustrating!

There's live coverage on BBC Iplayer and online, from just the one court it looks.

Inglot & Sailsbury have entered the doubles here, as well as the Indian pair of Prashanth & Sharan.

And Cam with Alastair Gray. Good entry. Sharan is, of course, Sam Murrays husband.

I mentioned last week on the women's BT thread that it would have been nice to have had Abigail Johnson or someone commentating on those matches, kind of being too optimistic / ambitious, but I see they actually have Abigail AND someone else commentating on the McHugh match here. 2 commentators for that sort of level is unheard of. There's only about 40 watching at the moment (on YouTube), but I suppose Cam playing later might have influenced their decision.

Ah, sorry Wolf. Didn't see your BBC online comment, but yes, that'll explain the commentary. It'll be similar next week at the Progress event.

I had a look at Abigail's Twitter and she says she is commentating with Rob Curling and Anna Smith over the next few days, so Abigail and Anna now. Abigail will be kind of the more lead commentator, but yes, one did sound a bit like Laura I thought.
