Ollie Okonkwo had SPs against the guy about 1000 places higher in the rankings than him

But couldn't quite take them

Shame - it's great what a good serve can do on grass

Allez, Ollie !

Our 3 pairs contain our 6 players ranked GB #8 to #13, after Marcus GB #7. Maybe linking / linked up in the hope of Wimbkedon WCs. How many Wimbledon doubles WCs are there?

There's no reason why the Brits can't win every single one of those.


 You'll get extremely long odds cumulatively !!!  And plenty odds against individually.

LTA criteria for all wild cards this year.  Looking back at last year's draw, I see that there were only five (Maxted/Thomson, Broom/Paris, Monday/Stevenson, Harris/Willis & Evans/Searle), so a couple went begging ( furious ).

 Can't help but laugh a bit - just as Greg moves on to coach Gio M-Perricard, Ben clocks up one of his best wins ever (his best)? 

Well done to Ben - a bit in the Ollie O camp, a big serve can get things done on grass

That is disappointing, not sure anyone came out of qualies having built their reputation at all, still a long way to go in this grass season

Probably Ben is the one who has enhanced his reputation, with a decent win and then a tight FQR match against two much higher ranked players.
