[Chase Visa]

Nice EL.

Hopefully one of Levine, Baker or Becker take it out.

[Sombrerero loco]

GL pospisil, krajinovic, mitchell, duckworth

[SapELee]

GL to the Americans + Krajinovic, Pospisil, and Wang.

[Filo V.]

I hope one of Igor, Bobby or Brian win so they get into the top 100 and make the USO direct entry. I think/hope Jesse will already be there before this event. Also GL to Benni as well.

[yesh222]

Baker won't be here hopefully. He'll still be playing in the second week at Wimby! (A man can dream, can't he? )

[Dupuis2006]

Anyone know if Rhyne Williams will play here?

[juddy96]

Good luck to Vasek!

Cool! thank you!

[Kante]

Both Baker's, Ginepri, Krajinovic, Kunitsyn Levine, Pospisil and Van der Merwe out, Delic from ALT too.
Borvanov, Duclos, Reid, Brezac, Williams, Sandgren, Nielsen, Jones in.

[outrider]

Nielsen OUT because he is playing doubles at Wimbledon.

[smucav]

Wild cards:
Dennis Nevolo
Bradley Klahn
Mitchell Frank

[outrider]

Good to see Klahn playing on this level.
What happened to him in the last year?
Last match was at USO Q last year.
Will he also play doubles with Ryan Thacher?

He was finishing out his college career. And I don't think Thacher will play professionally at all.
