Friendly little net cord on MP.

SF: Jack Draper WR 201 beat (Q) Yosuke Watanuki (JPN) WR 291 6-3 4-6 6-3

F: Jack Draper WR 201 vs (Q) Tim van Rijthoven (NED) WR 236

Jack has never beaten van Rijthoven. Let's hope he can end his Baron run.

Its not beyond the realms of the impossible for Jack to end they year as GB number 3 if he keeps up the challenger pace. Certainly reeling Liam in for number 4 spot soon enough.

 Great stuff.  Another final in Forli.  Fingers crossed it goes the same way as the first.

 I "red" this several times Bob, but got it eventually!!

PS he only lost once to the Red Baron, 3 years ago, in Barnstaple, Drapes has matured a lot since then, whilst the Red Baron has had to endure being shot down quite a number of times

 The famous Red Baron of world war 1 shared a name with Jacks opponent tomorrow. Bob was playing on that, and I ran with it.

Thanks, GBJ - I'd heard of the Red Baron but no idea what his actual name was

I looked up the translation of Rijthoven, thinking maybe 'Rijt' meant Red in Dutch/some language and Hoven meant Baron (or some such thing)

And found out that, acccording to Google, Rijthoven translates as driving range !

Which led me down a whole other path but nothing to do with Red Barons

I have to say it took me a while, it was bobs use of the capital B in Baron that made me realise !
