If you could have written the worst draw for me then this was it,
I think I was written off after Wimbledon, so it hasn't been too bad since then. I'm going to give Ukraine the last chance to try to get that British No 1 spot.
I was really pleased, ... As I say, I had ups and downs in my career. The older you get, time passes on, people forgive and move on. It was really nice. I enjoyed the reception I got and the support from the public. It was great.

greatly enhanced in the company of one of the stunning women met while on the tour.
There will be a lot at stake for me because if I win I will go to British number one for the end of the season,
