British Tennis Forum - Celebrating 20 Years!

Ive gone for 19. Draw doesnt look too kind.

Feeling rather pessimistic this year so have gone for 20 wins.

Good to see more entries coming in today after the singles draws. 23 in total now which matches last year's Aus Open final entry. It was 29 entries the previous year and we have got into the 30s with other Slams, so hopefully quite a few more to come. Go on, give it a go! Entries close midnight Saturday GMT so you have the remainder of Thursday and all of Friday and Saturday to enter.

So I forgot to set the timer on this, too much going on. I can still set a 24 hour timer, but cant stay up until midnight - I need to go tk bed shortly having been on an overnight flight and not having slept ( middle seat, middle section, economy / weve all been there)!

So Im going to set the timer for voting earlier and hope no one is going to unduly exacerbated at being asked to vote around 2 hours early.

So the vote will close slightly earlier now and apologies to anyone who planned to leave it very late! Ill announce exact time when I get too tired to stay awake longer!

Nearly forgot to do this which would have been exceptionally stupid as I am here!

Ive gone for 22 -dont think the singles draws are that great so hopefully the dubs will come up trumps!

So I am about to complete my personal grand slam - I am very excited and consider myself very lucky and grateful to be able to do this. And my gorgeous wife encourages me to do so - we were hoping she could come too but other commitments means she cant for this one.

And I have John Cain tickets for tomorrow so will be there to support Arthur - you never know he might catch Cobolli cold! If the Italian support are in could be great fun!

Likely to miss Emma as I am on Rod Laver in the evening session. Not sure about access for Cams match earlier but I will suss it out.

Anyhow will try and send some overnight reports and looking forward to some great tennis

20 for me.
