QR1: (q2) Henry Patten WR 1176 (CH = 1157 last December) LOST Osgar O'Hoisin (IRL) UNR (CH = 1425 in March 2018) 6-3, 6-7, 8-10
QR1: Jonathan Binding UNR (CH = 985 in August 2019) BEAT (q13) Gunjan Jadhav (IND) WR 1737 (CH = 1579 in January last year) 7-6, 6-3
Just seen this, disappointing for Henry. He did ok in some of the Brits only events last season, if I recall, but hasnt really done much on the international stage recently?

I don't think it was a surprising score, though. It was always going to be really close. They've got very similar profiles, Henry and Osgar.
I always think of Henry far more as a doubles player.
Also think he's only recently finished his MSc at Durham at the moment, (Finance, investment, something like that) although I might be a year out.
L16: (3) Aidan McHugh WR 568 defeated Filip Bergevi (SWE) WR 752 by 4 & 1
Nice to see Aidan get a 'normal' sort of win, that reflects the rankings i.e. not some rather difficult three-setter over a guy ranked 1000 or so (or, indeed, a loss)
