Do we think Oli B is a contender for a deep run at Wimlbedon?

Great win for Oli against one of a group of promising highly-rated Italians coming through. I hope Oli isn't in the same half as Luis Guto Miguel who is a fast rising 2009er!

Conor Brady & Ben Gusic Wan also won their doubles QF and so are into the dubs semis too

What a week for Oli - into the final with a fine win over a very good 2008er. :)

Was following the scores and I can tell you I was very nervous especially when Oli went 3-0 down in final set TB!

If Oli was 3-0 down in the tiebreak he must have won the last 7 points. His reward is to face another Bulgarian. The last British winner her was Jack PJ in 2021. The list of recent winners includes several who have gone on to the ATP top 100 (most recently Joao Fonseca in 2023), but it is very rare for anyone to do the Roehampton/Wimbledon double (unlike the girls).

Conor/Ben benefited from a walkover

SF

Oliver Bonding d. (4) Ivan Ivanov (BUL) 4-6 6-3 7-6(3)

F

(9) Alexander Vasilev (BUL) v Oliver Bonding

Doubles SF

Brady/Gusic Wan d. (4) Schoenhaus/Vasilev (GER/BUL) w/o

F

Brady/Gusic Wan v (2) Derepasko/Vasami (***/ITA)

Was at Roehampton today (last minute decision and was definitely worth it!) and was extremely impressed with Oli. Showed great maturity throughout and got through a tricky opening set. Was very solid with good number of first serves and drew errors from his increasingly frustrated opponent. His French coach was there along with his family (I think). Was pretty much always in control and played within himself but I suspected he had higher gears to go to if needed. Never got frustrated and always kept positive and on front foot, often coming to the net to put away some deft volleys. Congrats Oli and lets hope for a good Wimbledon.

Leon Smith was also in attendance along with LTA's Mark Weston.

 Great feedback Oscariyan, thank you.  Ollie has drawn a seed first round at Wimbledon so tough start.
