Why is Andy hitting a pink ball?

I believe Andy's match refered to in the photo is actually on Friday, not Saturday.

Thanks, correction made.

Sevin should take the 4.5. Can't see anyone in the draw who can beat him.

I think you mean Devin. Also - watch out for John Griffin. If he is on, he will be very tough to beat.

Sevin winning 4.5 ? You must be joking. He's a good 4.5 but there are several others better than him on the draw. And yes Devin is one of them.

I would bet on Bebel winning it, he toyed around with the entire 4.5 draw in the Berry Creek tournament.

Trust me on this one, you're wrong.

Scott and Devin are definitely solid picks, as is Griffin. Clayton Rogers has also been playing well and could test Scott if they meet. Likewise, Devin could have a tough match against Tony Dawson in the second round.

In the top half it will be Mr. Sevin and Mr. Briscoe. Bottom half it is between Devin and John G.

I pick the winner of the Dawson-Devin match.

Dawson will take me to the cleaners, assuming I even get that far.

Devin

How's that for self-confidence?

If Devin gets by Dawson, I'm gonna thump him in the third round.

Charlie,

If Tony Dawson has been playing then that is a tough match up. He just moved back last month from California so not sure how much he has been playing and I haven't seen him at the club.

Got the notice, Ray. You say the strangest things, especially when they are coming out of my mouth (or keyboard).
