Just to add a bit of colour to some of our Friday mens players:
Kyle hasnt won a title above ITF since 2020
Paul has won just one title at challenger level before, that was 2022
Luke has never won a tour level title before
JoMo is pushing for his second straight title winning week
Henry hasnt won an ITF title before
Anton hasnt won an ITF title since 2019
Harry is going for his first ITF title this year
I havent looked at the women, sorry, but the men have several perched on what could end up as really important career weeks.
Heather going for her biggest title level since 2020
Mimi going for her biggest title full stop
Sonay going for her 7th title of the season in singles and second biggest title level in her career.
All those and the men and maybe some of the others are in what could turn out to be massive weeks for them. Realise they are only at last 4 or 8 stages so a long way to go, but lots to cheer on and watch out for.
JoMo on his third straight Friday feeling ! Harry W and Henry P on their 3rd of 4 in October, and Millie in singles and doubles in her 3rd of the month.

THere's a lot of high level events there
And a lot of our top players
AND there's a lot of names that, with the best will in the world, many GB tennis fans probably wouldn't recognise at all (Esther, Isabelle, Aryan, Stefan, Joe L...)
The 2024 Tennis Europe U14 Masters has taken place this week in Monte Carlo, Monaco on clay. Megan Knight and Scott Watson made the Finals held today (Saturday). Both Megan and Scott won and so are the champions.
Thanks DF, as always. Millie Rajecki and Henry Patten both appear on their 4th of 5 lists in October, both showing good consistency and good luck to them in their matches today.
I was amused to see Cam's name with the singles winners this week as the rest of the winners all have names starting with a 'J'
Names starting with J are the best!
at mt workplace, the small team I work with largely are almost exclusively beginning with J, its a bit of a standing joke - when we introduce ourselves at client meetings its almost embarrassing if we are all involved (6 out of a team of 8)!
