I thought about nominating Ruben Harris for winning the boys wheelchair doubles. But it was just a one off match, and he had lost his semi in the singles so although noteworthy, I didnt think it took him into PoM nomination territory, but a nice congrats on winning the match/final!

To nominate or not to nominate. That is the question. And you all know who I am talking about.

Let's see how he gets on in the SF first, but may be worth a nomination already.

Nothing needs rushing - 3 weeks left after this weekend and Billy may build on it!

Worthy of note is Jan Choinski, whos run in Germany is as impressive but maybe less visible than Billys. Jan often gets less noticed , maybe playing less visible events, but hes having a great week this week.

Players have been nominated in the past for a lot less!

Yes, worthy of a nomination, but it's only week one. I'd rather base it on several weeks - the exception being winning titles.

4. Emily Appleton for exceeding expectations at Surbiton and taking out her previous highest ranked win.
