Week 42 - ITF M15 - Monastir, Tunisia (hard)
Permalink  

Our other wildcard, Louis Allen, has just taken the first set, 6-3

Would be lovely if he could get the second too.....

(NB This, to me, is exactly what home ITF events are supposed to enable - i.e. players who normally wouldn't get a chance in the main draw, get a wildcard, have a shot, maybe take advantage, get a ranking, etc. etc. etc. - very nice of Tunisia to provide what the LTA refuse to do)

Louis lost the second set 2-6 but built up a 5-1 lead in the third, before getting broken back.

Now 5-2*

OK, Louis, just one little push !

And one little push he indeed made smile

Lovely to serve your first ace to bring up two MPs (didn't take the first but nailed the first serve on the second MP)

Oscar lost the first set 6-3.
Broke to go 3-2 up then got broken straight away and didn't win another game.

 That doesn't seem right. It appears he is playing now and the score is 4 -4 in the 2nd.

 Yes, sorry I was only referring to the 1st set. Not the 2nd.
