British Tour Event: Corby Week 7
Permalink  

This is played just down the road from my house, so might go along if there is anyone of interest there. How would I find out the entries for men and women events?

Great stuff, John!

They will put the list up on the LTA site very soon. Do go and see the Rens and Sian Bayliss if they play.

Any chance of either of the Daniels playing? Problem is the $15k in Barnstaple same week. Most of the lower ranked Brits and juniors will be playing qualies or gettin WC's there. No futures event for the women though, hence why I posted it in women's section. More chance of some ranked British women than men.

I see Webley Smith is entered in a futures in Spain. Bit disappointed about that because she has played a few of these British tour events and was hoping she might come but doesn't seem so.

Nope, both the Daniels will be in South America or on their way to South America. You could get to see Daniel Smethurst...

Most of the boys will be playing abroad during this period, I'm afraid.

Did you go and see any of the action John ?

Jessica Ren got beaten 2 and 2 in the second round by someone ranked in the 1400s. Shows that it might take her a while to get used to the power of the ITF circuit players when she and Jennifer start playing ITFs in the autumn.

Naomi Broady has breezed through to the final, only dropping a handful of games along the way. She plays Claire Ricketts who's the top seed and is ranked higher but I think that Naomi will win in two.

I won't be too worried over Jess losing a match like this one badly. Everyone has off days - Fed was nearly beaten by Takao Suzuki last year!
Most world class Juniors can win G4s and G5s after qualifying for it when they are in some sort of form. While that's too much to demand from a 13 year old (unless you are Hingis or someone like that), I am pretty sure that Jessica won't get outhit when she makes her debut.

Any idea when this actually starts. The entry sheet available online said Wednesday with the draw being made on Tuesday. However, the entry list now says starts on Monday. When will a draw be available and also, will there be an order of play online?

No idea about the starting date.
OOPs aren't there on the LTA site.

Just phoned up the tournament referee and he said Naomi Broady will be playing on Thursday. Not sure about Sian Bayliss. Any info on her Arka? I must admit I don't know a lot about her.

In the men's draw, David Brewer has pulled out after reaching the final qualies round in Barnstable.
