JonH comes home · Tennis legend

I feel like theres one more nomination in me this weekend, or maybe two. But sort of dont want to as I dont feel it should be the Jon H Player of the Month awards. So I will hold back!

Haha, go for it, you hopefully know the process if and when ready - take the last list above, click quote, add a name to the bottom of the list and a reason, try and tidy up the text around the edges, and re post. Bosh!

I haven't felt inspired to nominate anyone this month, so thanks Jon for being on the ball!

Nominations List :

1. Max Basing - for winning the M15 title in Bali, seeded 4, just his second ITF title and first this year. His previous one was also in Bali! Will take out his career high ranking as a result.

2. Josh Wright (age 15) - completely unranked, never scored a point in juniors in three attempts, and then went on a run and won the singles title at the J30 Angola

3. Lloyd Glasspool and Julian Cash - Winning the Toronto Masters 1000 for the Canadian Open, their 19th straight win and their first Masters 1000 title. In the process, they claim a place in the Tour Finals. More to come in this story this month, I am sure, but for now, this is pretty decent!

4. Oli Tarvet - comprehensive through most of the week in winning the M25 at Roehampton, losing just 16 games in 8 straight sets before the final, where he came back from 4-6 *2-5 down before winning 11 out of the last 12 games to take his first M25 title. This secured a comfortable new ranking high in the top 400, showing live 385 as I write this.

5. GB Under 12 Boys - winners of the European Summer Cup, the same team of Tomas Gabor, Kai Max Hopkinson and Cameron Rae became the first British team to win both Winter and Summer Cup trophies in the same season.

6. Alicia Dudeney - well outside the top 1000, and only 22 and fresh from college, Alicia storms through to win the W35 at Roehampton

7. Oscar Weightman - it started in July, when Oscar took the step to enter the Newport challenger grass event, racking up a main draw win. He took that form into August, which is what interests us, got to the last 8 in Dublin and Roehampton and now takes his second ever ITF title in Finland. His month as of writing is 9 wins and 2 losses, an impressive haul and exciting to see what he does next.

A week left for nominations, just add them to this list. Still Roehampton finals to come later, all British in the mens; and next week we have US Open qualies, US Open mixed doubles (its official!), ATP Winston Salem, WTA Cleveland, as well as Challenger, ITF, Junior and Wheelchair action. So lots to still come

8. Arthur Fery - Winning his first challenger title, triumphing in the final via walkover. The title marks a key milestone in his return from injury, with strong performances throughout the tournament. This win also sees him break back into the top 250 where he deserves to be and higher soon hopefully! Not many points left to defend this year!
