Annabel Bann is 17 and won the last ever BWTA tournament in December. She beat Natasha Hillyer in the quarters and Emily Webley-Smith 2-6, 7-5, 6-4 in the final. Previous winners are Anne K and Mel South.

Last year she won 2 British tour titles and won a round in the Ikley 10K. She needs to get ranking points in two more tournaments to get the world ranking.

She hasn't had a wildcard yet this year as the fields have been so strong but with a lot of our top players competing elsewhere and a relatively weak Jersey field it was an ideal opportunity to give her one and I think she thoroughly deserves it

Oh, I am sorry. If she beat Webley-Smith and won two Tour titles, she surely deserves it.

I'm very surprised at the likes of Broady, Cornish, Tasha Hillyer etc not getting wildcards for these 10Ks.

Have you got any further info on Laura Slater, Arka ?

Should get Hillyer and Thomas into main draw here then!

Any idea who is in the main draw entry list in addition to those 4 wc's mentioned earlier?

Salmon · Tennis legend

I posted the link to the entry list.

johnnylad · Tennis legend

So you did! Nice list for the Brits!

I've hardly anything on Laura that can't be found on the ITF site.

They can't give Naomi too many WCs because of the AER - maybe they are spacing it out? And why Steph hasn't played internationally since the Orange Bowl is a mystery.

You should ask her someday!

I believe that she now trains with Yasmin Clarke.
