Thanks for putting that up, Kiu. I'll give them a look.

This one in Luxembourg looks competitive, but lots of the usual suspects. I'm waiting for the draw in this one: http://www.tennissegurosbolivar.com/web/

as I have my eye on a clay prospect from Chile and hope he's playing there. Could be the "player-to-be-named-later" for RG??

I am willing to bet NO ONE can predict who wins any of these events.

Who is taking the bet?

I will list the champions one at a time:

I think it's great to keep an eye on the challengers. It is the "best of the rest," and we can see who's rising, and why.
