Week 24 - ATP 500 - Cinch Championships - The Queen's Club, London, Great Britain (grass)


The LTA has published the entry list.  Alcaraz will be the top seed, while Cam should be seeded fourth.  Andy & Jack have wild cards.  Dartsrankings also has details of qualies entries, which do not include any Brits at this stage - & probably won't!

There's plenty of Brit interest in the doubles:

- Joe & Rajeev (1),
- Neal & Wesley (4),
- Jamie & Bruno,
- Cam & Alex de Miñaur,
- Dan & Dimi.

Lloyd & Harri are among the alternates, but with with two wild cards available + a slot for a qualifying pair, I would hope they'd make the qualies if they aren't given a WC.  That's enough interest, I think, to warrant a separate thread when the draw is released.

I know.  I just didn't feel the need to mention him.

One hopes that Liam and another, Jay, probably, get QWC's here.

I see Liam is not entered in QUeens but is in Ilkley - if Queens gave him a QWC, presumably that is ok to drop out of Ilkley? Although from a personal perspective, I hope to go along to Ilkley and see him in action there

Yeah Liam will be able to drop out of Ilkley if given a WC. Don't think it is best for him though. Needs to string a few wins together, playing the lower level will probably be better from him.

 I think you are probably right - it seemed for a while he was forging through to play regularly on the main Tour, at 250 level at least, but he has stalled the past few months

I know.  I didn't quite delete everything from the autofill when I started the thread.    Error corrected.

I was going to delete my comment, but doesn't seem any point in doing so as you've quoted it !

Apologies for starting a new thread before a draw has been made. Hopefully format is correct, and someone can correct if not.

Looking online it appears as though qualifying this weekend is closed to the public?  This seems like an awful shame since it's always a great weekend with a mixture of some of the very the top names practicing on the outside courts and a few of the top Brits playing important ATP qualies matches (although a few less since it was upgraded to a 500 event)

Can any other regular attendees confirm it's behind closed doors this year, and has any reason been given for the decision? With minimal advertising it's never overly busy and the grounds can comfortably come with a couple hundred keen tennis fans trying to catch a bit of the action.
