Well done Jay - reached his seeding..No one left in draw to fear either

Great to see Jay finding some form. Hoping that means he is injury free and that he gets a decent 'fully fit' run for the rest of the season.

Not a bad win over Kubler, tennis abstract had rated Jay a ridiculous 15 percent chance or so. Thats showed them!

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Jay has taken the first set, 6-4

Priesty · Challenger level

And the second 6-4!! biggrin

Jay seems to have an astounding ability to be off form for ages and then suddenly win a tournament from nowhere!! Let's hope he can repeat the feat tomorrow!!

That's a nice win. Good luck in the final. Let's hope it's a confidence boost and will turn things around for Jay.

Am I right in remembering that Jay hasn't won a Challenger? Hoping he can put that stat to bed, tomorrow.

He has 2 challenger titles from 4 finals. Binghamton in 2018 and Anning in 2019.

If Wiki is to be believed, he won the Binghamton Challenger in 2018 & Anning the following year. wink He also has six Futures titles to his name.
