L32: Nicola Slater WR 817 v (7) Jan Abaza (USA) WR 624 A bit of a nightmare draw for the only woman in the GB top 25 playing outside the UK this week. Abaza is only 16, so bound to be stronger than her ranking would suggest. She lost 1 & 1 to Heather Watson last November but beat Tara in 3 sets in April. She ha...

Amanda Carreras stays in Itaparica, but this week the tournament is a 25K instead of a 10K. L32: Amanda Carreras WR 581 v Paula Cristina Gonçalves BRA WR 600 They met in Rio last year, though on clay in that case, and Amanda won easily 3 & 1. The winner is likely to face the no. 2 seed in R2.
