Greg has spent the last two weeks in London recuperating and training for the qualifying for the Championships, as Wimbledon is known. Hampered somewhat by some miserable English summer weather, he has been able to train at an indoor centre in Sutton, albeit on hard court not grass. Along with his compatriots Lemke, Mitchell and Look and AIS head coach Brent Larkham they have also had some time on grass courts at Chiswick, when it was not raining.
Greg says his leg is much better and not troubling him at the moment but will only know if it has repaired fullyimbledon in six weeks time when the effects of the cortisone injection wear off. He is being looked after by the AIS Physio who provides massages, training regimes and advice. Greg says he is playing well and his serve is improving but is still quite underdone when it comes to match time and court time on grass.
The draw for the Qualifying tournament for Wimbledon, which is actually played at the Bank of England Club in Roehampton, a couple of suburbs away from the Wimbledon Centre, was done on Sunday and threw up a challenging prospect for Greg, the No.11 seed, Italian Paolo Lorenzi.
Play commences on Monday 13th June 2011.
