June
Not much activity for me as the three youngest players all went to work on the practice courts. Sushant Chiba was top seed at Halle though, where he got a ringside seat to the Irish Power Duo sweeping both grass 500 titles. Chiba met up with Seamus Hughes in the semis after squeaking by Stachovsky in two tiebreaks, and Hughes notched a third straight win in their series 6-4, 6-7(6), 6-3. None have been in straight-sets, but it's still a trend. At least RG and here is back-to-back non-humiliating tournaments, and that's something new this year.
Also, Brian Meikeljohn has gone MIA. No events of any kind since Roland Garros, and that allowed Chiba to back his way into the #2 spot again. Everybody will be playing next week during Wimbledon - it's always a great chance to pick up challenger points at CH+ Braunschweig, so that's where Kasaravalli will be. Chittoor and Guha will make their futures debut as well, so there'll be new information there heading into the summer.
