Since there is such a surplus of WCs, I think B&T (Boris and Theresa) may use it as part of the negotiation package with the EU.

Just watched Sugita lose 36 16 to Federer at Halle. Despite the scoreline, Sugita was very impressive on grass. Great volleying and lots of superbly angled passing shots. Decent serve-volleying.

Jordan Thompson, who lost to Sugita in the Surbiton final, beat defending champion Murray at Queen's (after getting in as a lucky loser). The day of the Challenger stars, clearly!

Sugita can play on grass. He won the Surbiton challenger (on grass) a couple of weeks ago. Don't think he has a big serve but otherwise has a good all round game perhaps a little fitter version of Yuki on grass...
