Anyone know who is looking after Naomi on the coaching side? She was hitting with Maria Sanchez this week, but I think Serena Nash was drafted in after Maria exited the tournament. A smallish lady with blonde streaks and a ponytail seemed to be the boss and known to a lot of the locals.

I'm guessing that this might be Suzi Riley, former coach of Naomi when she was young and now very good friend.

Naomi played well from what I saw on the stream. Diyas just played the big points better.

Shame for Naomi. But I guess Diyas wasn't top 30 or so a couple of years ago for nothing....

Hope she's pretty pleased with the week, whatever.

And the Belorussian is history too.

Also, Diyas' best surface is grass, and, amongst other things she has twice made R16 at Wimbledon.
She's ranked where she is mainly because of 8 months out with a wrist injury she picked up at Wimbledon last year.

From many angles, a good week from Naomi, and no disgrace today.

I think that may knock the Katies' ranking points back a round so 25 rather than 50 from what I've observed re doubles withdrawals. If that is a WTA policy probably in general quite a good one.

Gabi slots in between Harriet and Katy D in the singles rankings. GB #7 on 167 points, #8 163 and #9 161. Though as CD was saying earlier they have taken rather different routes over the last few months to for now reach pretty much the same place in the rankings, a little inside the top 300.

Very confusingly in the latest doubles rankings Katie S has added 50 points and Katie B 25 !
