Nottingham 2023, 12-18th June, ATP250: Main Thread

Andy's in action here ...
... might be one for locals in the Midlands/North of England to get to?

[tennis890]

We live an hour away. Just booked tickets for Wednesday (only day my brother has off work) so we have our fingers crossed for a Murray match ��

[cazza99]

Here is the draw - Andy plays a qualifier in the first round.

I thought Dan was playing Nottingham but he is not in draw, not entered any of the other tournaments either. 2nd seed Lestienne is ranked 70 though was no 48 in February.

Would this be on Monday then? And then play again on Wednesday? Or am I just clutching at straws here :lol: Wish we could have gone over a couple of days to guarantee seeing Andy.

Doubt Andy will play on Monday with him playing the Surbiton final tomorrow.

Oh yeah, true. No doubt we have picked the wrong day as usual lol

Indeed … I love Nottingham and under normal circumstances I would be there like a shot, even if Andy wasn’t playing … BUT would have to be very last minute if I am able to go at all this year as we are waiting for a date for house move

[HoopGirl]

Surprised Andy is playing here after his week in Surbiton and with Queens being the following week -
I’d have expected him to have a break.

Depends how much he's hoping to bump his ranking up to gain a seeding at Wimbledon and avoid the other 31 seeds.

So how many points does he get for this win? Some articles I’ve read say he’s now seeded with this win but I thought he needed another win

[Hawkeye]

Ranking now at 43 I think? Despite his win, Andy lost points this week

[themass15]

Depending on other results Andy needs around 300 points to stand any chance of being seeded at Wimbledon.

[Stell]

Again, I'll be watching the matches on the Red Button.

[JAMES4578]

Andy 44 in the latest Pepperstone ATP rankings, down 1 place. No 43 in the race.

[Alis]

Again, I'll be watching the matches on the Red Button.

It doesn't seem to be on the red button yet. 😕

[Sallydaisy]

It doesn't seem to be on the red button yet. 
Latest info from Tennis on Telly:

Unfortunately the BBC don't appear to be showing the WTA matches in Nottingham and will be starting with the ATP Challenger matches not before 14:00.
The WTA matches are however on the LTA's YouTube channel and on Amazon Prime.
NB. Qualies are not usually televised.

[Stell]

They did show Arthur Fery's match, before the rain stopped it.

[Speedy Hawk]

I have added FTM for Nottingham challenger tournament since Roland Garros is finished and Andy is playing.

[Hawkeye]

Andy not before 2pm tomorrow against a qualifier yet to be determined. I guess today's disruption might change things.

[Sallydaisy]

Qualifiers placed in Nottingham, Andy Murray will play Joris de Loore and Liam Broady will play Rio Noguchi in the first round.

[tennis890]

What do we think the chances are of andy playing again tomorrow? Was so hoping to see him play but surely they'll have a rest day between? Liam Broady playing today too. We have defo picked the wrong day (as usual) :lol:

[Stell]

Andy will be on after the Steve Johnson vs Arthur Fery match and they're not supposed to be on before 2pm (14.00pm). Luckily, they were in the third set when the rain came.

[Hawkeye]

Andy v. Grenier is 4th up on Thursday, after Katie Boulter vs Daria Snigur, Harriet Dart vs Anhelina Kalinina and Jodie Burrage vs Magda Linette

[cazza99]

So does TennisOnTelly on Twitter!!! Can't find who posted what I put up ...
... however, note below that the WTA dubs and ATP Mens are both scheduled for 11am so one of them must be on Court 2 ... unless they have shifted the Mens Singles Final to 15.00 ...

Harriet Dart and Heather Watson vs Ulrikke Eikeri and Ingrid Neel - doubles final 11:00

Still not 100% sure on this but I have seen Andy is scheduled to play at Queens tomorrow, so I am wondering whether he has asked for an earlier start

[Gary D]

I bet that surprises some people with tickets.

[cazza99]

Set up a match thread - think Andy deserves one as its the final.

[Guerkins2]

Well Andy doesn’t think he is playing Queens tomorrow - hope he is right

[Hawkeye]

Unfortunately, Dart/Watson lost in the doubles final after a match tie break.

[cazza99]

Andy is not playing Queens tomorrow. Oop did not come out until this afteroon so not sure where you got your info from.

[Stell]

Well done to Andy. I wouldn't have thought Queens would make him play again tomorrow.

[david1610]

Well done Andy! Getting close to that seeding position.
