Ilkey great britain..Grass 127,000 Euros

Draw...http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/9005/mds.pdf

Jordan Thompson top seed..guy is good on the grass..Like RAMANATHAN to come out of the bottom.

Fergana Uzbeckistan 75,000 Euros..hard
Draw..http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/603/mds.pdf
Weird to have a hard court tourney in a clay to grass transition time.Dont know if that would hurt or hinder people//
Its outdoor so could be hotter than balls..Maybe some retirements from players that are going from clay to the hard stuff?
Like Duckhee Lee to progress here..

Poprad tatry Slovakia clay 64,000 Euros.
draw..http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/9003/mds.pdf
haider mauer managed to qualify here..Could make a run..
Pavlasek has played a lot of matches...Could be tired..Dancevic ML?

Blois France..Clay 43,000..http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/6757/mds.pdf
Dam a bunch a shitbirds here..
Bercloq needs the points..could be motivated here to win..
Robert going from one week of grass back to clay..Akward?
Tatlot might not have anything left in the tank now..Fade him first round?


La'Aquilla Italy..43,000 clay
draw..http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/3627/mds.pdf

I know the Olceppo kid has a lot of talent and could surprise..

[Honeybadger44]

Ocleppo... Well spotted! I noticed last year that he has some skill. He failed to convert that into some visible challenger results back then, but they'll come sooner or later.
Another young guy to look out for - Jan Choinski.

Only one this week with the Grass going on and Wimbledon Qualies..

Milan 43,000 Euros...Clay

http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/3463/mds.pdf

Once again even though he had a bad draw last week..Ocleppo should be looked at ..Playing Gaio who is a dirt rat himself but not as good as a few years ago.

Dam De Bakker is still playing?!! LOL..Guy must be getting back from Injury..Felix should roast him..maybe bet 2-0 sets

Baldi aint bad he could take out a few opponents..Always bears watching this shit Italian Challengers with these Crooked Italian Wildcards..Would not surprise me in the least to have a bunch of WTF's in the draw

[beefcake]

2 tourneys this week even with Wimbledon going on. These are only for degens!!

Marburg Germany Clay 43,000 Purse in euros http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/6156/mds.pdf

Always dicey to see who cares here.may guys were in Wimbledon Qualies..So from grass to clay could be a bit weird.Curious to see Deliien going against stiffer competition finally. He could roll here as he has a good draw.Brown is in desparate straights now with his ranking tumbling to almost 200.Might be having to qualify at challys soon.

Recanti italy..Hard 43,000 purse http://www.protennislive.com/posting/2018/1743/mds.pdf
I see a few guys here that were once good.Brands and Marchenko..

[DavidGoliath5003]

Brands ML @1.87 vs Ramanathan

Small tourney, Brands is slowly improving. I think you will see him finally gain some ranking points in the next few months.

[DavidGoliath5003]

Vavassori ML @2.65 vs Quiroz worth a shot

[DavidGoliath5003]

Galovic Train @-3 Games 1.78

[beefcake]

Hmmm..Dellien beat Belucci today..Guy is for real IMO...If he wins this tourney could be top 100...Watch out for him in these late yea clay 250s..he might actually win one of these at odds aof 50-1 or higher..
