Well done Giles, jumped in the car from Edmonton with no food or shower straight on to court 4 hours later winning in 3 sets. Deserves all the success that comes his way a real grafter.
Giles has climbed to live 471 as a result of his efforts this week. Kudos.
The further 2 points he has earned so far in qualifying here, on top of his 16 M25 RU points from last week's M25, have pushed his live ranking past his CH 475.
L32: (1) Dominik Köpfer (GER) WR 75 (CH = 50 in May 2021) vs Charles Broom WR 355 (CH = 343 in July)
L32: (5) Ryan Peniston WR 181 (CH = 123 in July last year) vs Andrés Martin (USA) WR 727 (CH = 564 in October last year) L32: Toby Samuel WR 414 (= CH) vs Qualifier
What's Köpfer doing slumming it in a Challenger 75?
Charlie lost in straights sets, as expected, to Koepfer.
