Weird. I wonder if he will ever have another chance to get inside the main draw of a Challenger main draw

[fran70]

The same names every week on the challengers that take place in USA. I guess that the title will finish in the hands of Nishikori, Reynolds, Smyczek, Young, Luczak, Guccione or De Voest.

The Virginia Cavaliers showed what they were amde of last week. Now its the Tennessee Volunteers turn in Knoxville.

Current Vois:

-Tennys Sandgren is in the qualie draw. He has the game to bother some and make a run.

-Rhyne Williams: Probably the most dangerous of the group. Just won a collegiate indoor national tournament this past weekend. This tournament had the very best college players in the country. Williams def. Domijian en route to winning it. He has thg big game to cause trouble. Similiar to Shabaz.

-JP Smith: Senior who has done a lot in his career at Tennessee. Been ranked #1 in college several times. However his game is not as transferable to the pros. Less power and more of a consistent player, although he does have a sneaky good lefty serve. I expect Nishikori to routine him.

-Boris Conkic: Played #2 for the Vols last year and hovered around 30-40 in the college tennis rankings. Decent player but I don't expect him to make much impact here.

and we also have a current Kentucky Wildcat in the draw, Eric Quigley: He has made tremendous strides recently to launch himself into the top 5 in college. I have never seen him play so I do not know his style but his reslts of late have been very impressive. Has a good 1st round draw. But since he is from kentucky and not Tennessee he will not enjoy the same home court advantage the others will soak up.

Sorry for sounding ignorant but where's Taylor Dent? He was the defending champion. Is he injured?

Dent Retired I heard. There is an article about that somewhere I think

Looks as if #Knoxville 5th seed Marinko Matosevic has withdrawn from the tourney, as LL Fritz Wolmarans is currently facing Chris Guccione.
