Qualifying Draw

[Zirconek]

it's a 128 draw size, with no byes in first round


Dee lost in first round, as expected, a bagel and a tie-break as score.

[CooCooCachoo]

No Jose Checa-Calvo

[Scotso]

There's actually a lot of competitive matches for a draw that size. I guess the players are equally crappy.

So close to winning that elusive first set

Still, a tie-break is better than usual and only the second time he's ever reached one... I'm sure he could have won it if he wants but is going to keep losing matches until he's got the record and then he'll show everyone his true ability and pick up a win

Quite a result for Dee - in 106 sets, this is the closest he's got to winning one!

or maybe he retire from tennis before the match where he could break the record
actually, we can't say that he doesn't try and easily give up... or not

yes, he is improving, and the guy who almost lost a set to him even won in second round

Dee at least now he is playing futures qualies, and not just getting WC to main draw in Challengers.

Anyone knows when the Main Draw comes out??

You are soooo right on that one . For example, I saw some Polish players who compete at these Q sometimes, and it's .
