    Draper beat Brooksby 6-3 6-1 while Harris lost to Diallo 1-6 6-3 4-6.

    Interestingly, coming off winning Stuttgart, Fritz fell at the first hurdle at Queens to Moutet yesterday. In fact, every seed in Draper’s half of the draw is already out.

    Live ranking points put Fritz at 4635, Djokovic at 4630 and Draper at 4500. Winning in round 2 would add 50pts to Draper’s total and winning the following quarter final would add 100pts, so the equation is simple:

    - Draper beats Popyrin and Evans/Nakashima, he’ll be no. 4 seed at Wimbledon
    - Draper fails to win the next two games, he’ll be no. 6 seed at Wimbledon

    Katie Boulter does a good professional job of taking a very competitive first set against Sonay Kartal but then can't get a ball into court for 5 and a half games of the 2nd set
    Is looking down the barrel of a very swift Kartal equaliser.   When KB's level drops it goes off the edge of a cliff, weird.

    Fearnley beat Moutet in three sets at Queens. He will play Lehecka in the quarter final tomorrow.

    Potential for a Draper v Fearnley semi final if both were to win tomorrow.

    Shame the first hour of Fearnley's match isn't on BBC2, but at least it'll be in iPlayer

    Apart from the breaks between sessions, which I enjoy too as I learn a lot, I have schedule conflict today with the first test against India :(

    Draper first set won 6 - 4 against Nakashima. 

    If draper gets through he will become a top 4 seed in the world heading into Wimbledon.

    Sometimes it would become tedious but in a way I do kinda miss the review Hawkeye system. Can add a bit of drama to the proceedings.

    Lehecka wins the set 6-4. Playing very good tennis. Draper barely threatened his serve.
