I've been putting together some stats to try and see if there is actually any evidence that holding more home events actually helps - most of us think it does, but without any proper stats to back it up until now. Have a look at ...

G'Day,

I just noticed that Joss hasn't played all year, and Kat has only played one event, and was wondering if anyone knew why this was? Are they focusing on school work? Are they taking time away from tennis? Are they injured?
Hoping to join Amanda and Jade in the main draw is Tara. Here's hoping she can improve on the last 2 weeks.Q1: Tara MOORE (3) 507 vs Sayaka UMEDA (JPN) UNR
