Very well done Olivia, wins 4-6 6-3 6-4  biggrin

Her 6 points ( so far ) will take her to a big CH inside the top 1000 and provisionally onto the top 25 table ( bringing the top 25 all back within the top 1000 ).

Also beating WR 465 is apparently a CH win, beating a victory over WR 493 last year.


Just came on to post the ranking implications (and scalp) after posting them on Twitter only to find you had it all covered a quarter of an hour ago This really is becoming quite a week for Olivia and the Brit she beat in the FQR won too

So overall it seems a bit better than R1 in Woking so far (though it's still hard to see any Brits getting past R2) - Beth did have a decent draw, though I'm not sure I'd have made her the favourite for it and certainly didn't expect a scoreline as emphatic as 2 & 2

A pity neither Harriet nor Katy could eke out a win but they both had tough draws - Harriet playing a seed and while Katy's opponent Diatchenko is unseeded, she is a former top 75 player who made the SFs in Woking last week and whose current ranking isn't based on that many tournaments.

Unfortunately work defeated me today, and I didn't get out of my meeting until 2pm, so it was too late to go down and watch - would have missed pretty well all the singles.
Great to see four go through, and some close matches by our top girls against tough opposition.

Sam looks to have the best chance of making it through to the next round. It just depends on whether she can recover more of her past form.

Re Olivia Nicholls, from Loughborough Uni, this is from the recent article about the upcoming World University Games (see general tennis section):

"Olivia is one of six pro-player coaches, a dual career initiative supported by the Tennis Foundation, the LTA and TASS.

Speaking about the programme, Olivia said; I wanted to play tennis full-time - Id played tennis at university for three years and captained the first team in my final year - but I realised I needed some support.

As soon as you graduate its difficult to find places to train and to tap into a ready-made support network. As a former TASS athlete I know all about the difference they can make and as soon as I knew they were involved in the Pro Player-Coach Programme it was a no-brainer."

More about the programme (which also has Jonny Binding) can be found on:

www.tass.gov.uk/2017/05/05/tennis-programme-combines/

From Spectator on the US college thread:

"This may already have been mentioned elsewhere - and may not be reliable (though the source is generally very reliable) but the US tweeter @Parsa_Nemati is reporting that both Ms Burrage and Ms Appleton have decided to play professionally rather than attending university."

Namely:

Parsa @Parsa_Nemati 9h9 hours ago

18-year-old Brit @jodieburrage has decommitted from Florida & has decided to turn pro. Current WTA singles ranking of #704/former ITF Jr #14 at Barnes Tennis Center

So these points and matches this summer for Jodie are rather more important.....


(And also: Parsa @Parsa_Nemati 9h9 hours ago

17-year-old Brit Emily Appleton (@ejappleton14) has decommitted from Vanderbilt and has decided to turn pro. WTA singles ranking of #786. at Barnes Tennis Center)

 I'm in  South Kensington right now, and it is chucking it down. The forecast is for rain  most of the day,  so they  might move the matches indoors.
