Katie having another go this week. She didn't win a match last week, but she has a qualifier first up this week, so let's hope for a little more from her. R32: Katie BOULTER (GBR) 351 vs QUALIFIER

Britain have been put in a group with Bulgaria, Poland and Luxembourg. Poland are a tough team but the other 2 are beatable as they have a great #1 but not so good #2 so we could beat them both. Bulgaria will be tough as its a home tie for them BUT we beat them last year i think. Good luck to the british girls.!

Q1: BARNETT, Alicia (GBR) 5 587 v HUI, Katherine (USA) WC UNR 14yo JCH=1355 The number one seed in qualifying was below Tara so I assume Tara has been moved into the main draw.
L16: Sofia Shapatava (GEO) & Emily Webley-Smith CR 352 (172+180) vs (3) Miyu Kato & Danka Kovinic (JPN/MNE) CR 219 (79+140) When I saw that Em had withdrawn from the Thailand 25K, I rather thought that I might find her teaming up with Sofia here. Could have been a rather better draw.
Quite a large British presence on the Greek mainland next week: QR1: (q2) Billy Harris WR 1029 (CH = 609 in October last year) vs BYE QR1: George Agious (GRE) UNR vs Jack Gibbens WR 1953 (CH = 1895 in August) QR1: Evangelos Bogris (GRE) UNR vs (q12) Jonathan Binding WR 1562 (CH = 985 in August) QR1: (q3...
For those who follow David C's posts about our U12 teams, (and U14s), the name of Vlada Kozak will be familiar. Born 2006, from Bolton, I believe, Vlada has just marked up her first ITF points, coming through qualis and winning R1. Lucky Loser, 2005-born Yvonne Subev, younger sister of Victoria, also...
R1: COLLINS, Ali (GBR) 944/371 v PIGATO, Lisa (ITA) 851/233 CH=766/167 30/9/19 [16yo JCH=107] The draw could have been easier for Ali, the winner of this match is likely to play the top seed in R2.
QR1: Stefan Loncar (NED) UNR vs (q11) Max Andrews UNR (CH = 1553 in November 2012) QR1: (q3) Mason Recci WR 1272 (= CH) vs Adam Nagoudi (TUN) UNR QR1: (q5) Maik Steiner (GER) WR 1347 (CH = 1333 last month) vs (qWC) David Quayle UNR
