Ebden made the final last year (lost to isner) which makes that weak loss to smyczek rather disappointing, a good result this week would of kept his top 50 for a while.

Slightly disappointing week in general but Alex had a tough draw in ivo first round...

Popyrin into Astana semis against the lone seed remaining.

 

[vaughany]

Yep, see below:




Kubler has made the quarter finals at the Gatineau Challenger and Popyrin the quarters of the Astana Challenger.

Stosur has made the quarters at Gstaad.

Good to see a few active on the circuit this week. Looks like Tomic lost to a decent opponent in Sela. Kubler is through to the quarters in the Challenger

Kubler now at 108 in the live rankings. A win tonight in the semi's could put him at about 104 depending on other results, if he can win the final he might jump into the top 100 for the first time.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Kubler loses his semi at Gatineau unfortunately.

De Minaur won his first game last night in 3.

 

[vaughany]

Good work by De Minaur. Plays Isner next.

Other matches been delayed due to weather.

Millman defeated Struff in straight sets.

Kokkinakis lost in 2, Duckworth lost in 3.

Bolt playing Baghdatis at the moment, on serve first set.

 

[matt_897]

Bolt lost 4 and 1.

Kokkanksis scoreline very concerning, hasn't been the same since the knee, back to challengers or even futures with those points from los Cabos coming off next week.

Millman will get a fun clay experience against Thiem

 

[The City Boyz]

Jesus bolt has a god awful BH

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Millman will get a fun clay experience against Thiem

Millman played Thiem in a DTB Bundesliga match on clay last week and lost 5-7 6-4 10-8 which isn't too shabby.

 

[vaughany]

Edben v Young
Kyrgios v Rubin

Unsurprisingly de Minaur lost to Isner (6-3 6-2).

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

A loss for Millman wins for Ebden and Kyrgios

 

[pepsi]

Ebden into the semis

Kyrgios pulls out injured in the 2nd set

 

[Hamingja]

SF at Atlanta & Hertogenbosch
QF at Halle
3rd round at Wimbledon

You would have written Ebden off two years ago.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Ebden into the semis

Kyrgios pulls out injured in the 2nd set

Damn, that's disappointing re Nick, great stuff from Matty though

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Ebden loses to Isner in three sets.

JPS wins Atlanta doubles as third seed.

Beat second seeds in final.

 

[matt_897]

JPS might need to think abbout doubles full time soon

Thompson lost that challenger final this morning in 3. At least he actually won some matches this week

 

[Redline]

Santillian back on court in a Challenger in China. He is through to the quarter finals.

 

[pepsi]

De minaur moves into the semis of Washington with Murray's withdrawal.

His first 500 semi final and a very handy ranking boost.

 

[matt_897]

Getting a huge break with kudla/rublev having to play their qf tomorrow arvo before the semifinal at night with alex not playing today. Either way its a big week for him.
