Jet lag has got me, haha. Wide awake.

Anyway, interesting how some sites wont load here for some reason. Im sure its fine in the UK, but the ITF website wont work at all. A couple of others consistently wont load but they seem to be financial ones. No idea why ITF is affected.

If it is accessible in the UK, be interested if someone could check the tournie link in the post above and see how Alfie and Gordon have got on in their opening event so far (and post the outcomes!)

Link working fine here.

Alfie beat Gordon 6-2 retired in the singles SF.

Final: (1) Alfie Hewett vs (2) Martin De la Puente (ESP)

Alfie & Gordon have given a walkover in the doubles final.

So clearly Gordon must have an issue

Thanks Indy - thats a shame re Gordon and doesnt bode well for their title defence in the AO. Let me know how Alfie does in the final!

Its the Victorian Open this week, another 500 event and taking place across mens, womens and quad.

In womens and quad, Lucy Shuker and Greg Slade lost early, Greg surprisingly as he was seeded two, to Australian up and coming star Wenzel.

In mens, however, Gordon Reid bounced back from last weeks injury and is into the semis where he plays Japanese Miki, who upset de la Puente, in the last 8.
