Not a huge number of Brits but a couple of our major young hopes are playing this week which makes it interesting.

 

In the girls, Holly Fischer (born 2003) is fourth seed.

Jessica Dhome-Casanova also has a wildcard.

 

In the boys, Harry Wendelken (born Dec. 2001) is third seed.

Zyaan Ahmed has also come through qualifying.

Wondered when Holly was going to be playing again. Good chance for some points and wins this week.

Also wonder when she'll make her ITF senior debut.

Another two tidy sets for Holly:

She lost her doubles semi though, for what it matters.

The official result is not up but sccording to Holly's family's tweet account, Holly lost the final in straight sets, to the third seed, Petroula, born 2000, JWR 275

But a great week, and sizeable extra points. Well done !
