It could so easily - & should - have been the other way round.
SF: (6) Ugo Humbert (FRA) WR 30 defeated Jack Draper WR 160 by 5 & 3
I think it's for the best that Jack lost today.

Yes, I thought so too.

Had a good week and lots to build on - Humbert is playing really well and he ran him close. Watch out for him at Wimbledon - plays Bergs I believe there as well or have I got that wrong ?

No doubt Jan generally thinks that Toby is a great guy but he can probably live with Toby losing there, and re top 100 not being taken to the wire of tomorrow's final.

I suspect it will only be a matter of time before Toby does enter the top 100 ( though we've said that about Brits before ) but for now, always assuming live rankings have it right ...

Congratulations to Jan Choinski WR 100

Yes Tara, WR 100 is in the top 100 ( old stagers here may recognise the reference ).

I can almost remember the quote, but was it Top 200 (no. 200) she had achieved at the time?
Mel did get to number 100, I think.
(Didn't look up these rankings, yet)

Tara could play well, on the grass, on her day.
