1. Ophelia Korpanec Davies (2009) - winning the J100 singles title, and the doubles title last week, in South Africa. Her first titles at this level. Still age 15.
2. Emily Appleton for winning the 15K in Canada. She has been focussing more on doubles for the last year or so. All credit to her for dropping a couple of levels in order to try and progress her singles career.
3.Jamie Murray for reaching 1000 matches, only the second active player to do so in doubles (after Melo) and the first Brit.
4. Sonay Kartal for reaching R4/the last 16 of the Indian Wells WTA1000 (as a lucky loser!), beating the WR17 along the way and achieving a new CH of 63.
(Sonay's narrative may need an update, but I wanted to make sure we captured her nomination when we were all still in the excited phase!)
Great event for Sonay, Jack and Liv also going well in IW as we approach the half way point in the month.

Just getting ready for an influx of nominations over the weekend
I think Liv and Jack both should be on our list; basically ,Im not following closely this past two weeks to feel I can write it, so hope someone puts them on here!

I'm sure someone will put them on here, it's only 7am! For Jack, I'm sure it will follow the final.

No, I know - I was just musing out loud that, as and when, it would be good if someone can do it as I dont feel up to it! Tennis is playing a bit of a back seat for me at the moment, in terms of my brains capacity.

6. Oliver Crawford - winning a 25k title in China - he's lost his last two finals and is trying to get back on track after a big dip in ranking - and I know very little about him but maybe he needs a boost by being on our PoM voting roster?

Thanks CD - just a few days in the sun before starting to job search, or more like network. Im finishing my current job this Wednesday. And daughter has just split from her boyfriend - or he from her - and is in a bad place so we all feel like a few days away somewhere sunny is what might be needed. Phhh.
