Week 25 - The Championships, Wimbledon (grass) - men's qualifying

Bugger Will Vs Anton. Some tough draws there particularly Ryan, Arthur and Aidan. 3 of 7 to get through 1st round if lucky

Great job, SC

My comments copied over from the WC thread:

That's got to be a pretty good result for our wildcards, no?

Barely a seeded player.

Guaranteed winner in one all Brit match

Dellien is Bolivian and a clay courter. And Menezes too, no?

Petrovic not been doing too great.

Sela has got to be past his best, surely.

Gunneswaran has never done anything on grass

Good, Will vs Anton. That's one into QR2 for starters

Ryan and Stuart could meet 2nd round I think

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Just checking, it's 8 points for a QR1 win, yes?

(16 for a QR2 win and 25 for a FQR win?)

So, that's a nice point earner for Anton or Will (with Anton obviously being the overwhelming favourite)

I don't know about Stu on grass. Least he's had practice.

I'm hoping Felix might cause an upset (or Arthur - or both!)

They could. That's why the two matches are bracketed together.

indiana · Tennis legend

Yep, 8, 16 and 25 points ( effectively 35 adding the MD R1 points ) for winning QR1, QR2 and the FQR.

I believe emmsie means she thinks it's quite likely/possible/on the cards, rather than just that's the draw

Although I think a lot of folks who pass by infrequently wont know the way the draws are written up signify that unless pointed out. It took me a long time to realise ! Back in the days when I was just JonH and hadnt Come Home

Thanks smile

It's so hard to keep up but at least I got that one right.

If Anton gets those points, that's another 8 to add to his 25 from last week..........

biggrin I've only just noticed that they aren't double spaced like the others, you're way too organised

oop is out, and with qualifying on the red button it looks like Jack PJ's match is the one Brit scheduled for the televised court (11 if the same as in 2019). He follows Kokkinakis. Brits are spread throughout the day, but with Arthur, Stuart and Ryan all on first

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

And SO irritating that you can normally go there and watch - and now, not only can we not go, but the courts aren't even televised.....

Though, as I have said before, for folk not aware of that SC spacing code I feel it's always worth pointing out that players could meet in the next round.
