Not a bad line up, good to see Del Potro there!!

[karanga]

Yep good to see Delpo and Sascha in the line up

Hope delpo doesn't withdraw

I was wondering whether Andy would see whether he can sneak in here.

Andy will only play an Exo and just as likely to go to the Hurlingham Club.

That's nothing to what happened to Dan Cox ...
:shocked:

... and that is by no means the full Boodles line-up. There are quite often 'one-off' appearances from any of the top 30 (and I'm NOT suggesting Andy or Nole or Rafa but the first 2 have deffo in the past put in a surprise unannounced trip to The Boodles) not least because there is also a jolly nice golf course attached to the estate and it's handily placed for anyone practising at Wimbledon. Just sayin' ...
:whistle:

I has booked tickets for Tue, Wed and Sat ...
:p

... 'tis my only tennis treat this grass season!
:grass:

Hope you get to see Andy

I have often looked at the Boodles and thought what a lovely day out that would be (or days out if you are Sally!) Have fun Sally! Maybe one year I will make it!!

I've been two or three times - it's very nice, and much cheaper than Hurlingham!

[Sallydaisy]

Tomorrow will be fun ... no really 'big' names but Kokky is entertaining, Dreddy rocks his locks and the final British doubles event is unlikely to be serious. Club tennis at it's best ...
:shades:

Off to find out who the heck the first 2 players are ...

Order of Play Day 5 - Saturday 1st July 2017 - 12.30pm Start

Seb Korda(16yrs) is the son of Petr Korda and sometimes partners 17yr old Mejia in Junior doubles.
Both doing well in the Juniors. Not the first time Boodles has 'promoted' youngsters.

Dzumbur is working his way up the rankings, currently #83 and CH #66.
