Week 22 - ITF (W25) - Santa Margarita de Montbui, Spain - Hard
(
1 2 3 4 5 … 6
)
(Preview)
Interesting, after not being in the draw at all, EWS has turned up here with Sam - and Sofia S, her doubles partners - from Jerusalem. Emily and Sam in the q draw. Can only see the OOP so far, but have wholly unranked QR1 opponents, and as they are in the top 6 seeds, will presumably also have lower ranked FQ...

Week 22 - ITF (W15) - Tabarka, Tunisia - Clay
(Preview)
Just one q round but not the easiest draws for Graziella and Alisha to earn one of the 8 q places in the MD. Graziella especially, as she plays Margaux Orange, who has a former WTA ranking. This is the first time for me to see Ms Reayer, I must admit. FQR: Graziella BARRETT (GBR) UNR/UNR vs Margaux ORANGE...

Having recently seen Joko;s result, it seems to me that we are having a lot of these "set reversal" results; I don't have match by match stats so I would be interested to know if this is a recent phenomena

The first change from a carpet court in Portugal this ITF year I think. Just Anoushka in qualifying, so maybe the Mortons are not here this week. Playing a very young Canadian player. Winner, sadly, will take on the q1 seed. QR1: Anoushka WOOLLER (GBR) UNR/UNR vs Bianca Jolie FERNANDEZ (CAN) UNR/UN...
