Last Updated: Tuesday, 21 February 2006, 14:41 GMT http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/tennis/4736646.stm Parmar shocks Srichaphan in Open British number five Arvind Parmar saved three-match points before beating Thai Paradorn Srichaphan 7-6 (7-3) 5-7 7-6 (9-7) at the Rotterdam Open. The world number 230, who came into the tournament as a lucky loser, saved three-match points in the final-set tie-break before sealing his victory. The surprise win is the 27-year-old's first at ATP level since June 2004. He joins fellow Briton Greg Rusedski in the second round while Tim Henman faces Sweden's Thomas Johansson on Wednesday. Parmar has played in only two Challenger events so far this season, in Wrexham and Bergamo, Italy, and lost in the first round both times. He earned his place in the tournament as a replacement for top seed Rafael Nadal, who withdrew because of a thigh injury. Rusedski, who overcame Czech Robin Vik in straight sets on Monday, faces Russian Nikolay Davydenko in the second round after the top seed beat Jan Hernych 6-3 6-3. ============================================================================== 這是英網板開板以來，第一篇對Arvind Parmer的報導。 Arvind Parmer是右手持拍，單手反拍的選手。(事實上英國也有蠻多左手球員。這個以 後我再來寫專文報導。) Arvind Parmer上次在巡迴賽贏球已經是2004年，世界排名230的他，是以會外賽幸運 輸球者的身份遞補進來，並且在第一輪當斯里查潘握有三個賽末點的時候，反蹼成功 。 希望英國能有更多的新秀，或是女生也好可以遞補上來，光是三名大將Henman、Rusedski 、Murray很容易形成缺水狀態。我蠻希望上次在亞伯丁杯和Murray搭配的左手持拍的小 Murray能夠竄升上來，如果有了他。英國網壇未來就不會陷入單兵作戰。Henman和 Rusedski將會有更大的迴旋空間來繼續從事他們以後的網壇生涯。 --
