Thanks, Peter, for the above; knowing that you'll be doing this takes much of the (self-imposed, to be sure) pressure off me to get the new highs up quickly, especially useful as I'm often busy of a Monday.

I've three new doubles highs to add: Amanda Elliott at 322, Naomi Broady at 456, and Nicola Slater at 700.

Although Yasmin's and Liz's is the 11th doubles title won by British girls this season, it's the first to be won by an all British partnership.

Thanks, Peter; I had noted Jennifer, but omitted to list her. Amanda's omission, though, was a careless slip - I simply didn't register her rise. My apologies, girls.
I've also amended the comment, just in case there are folk who read them, rather than check the lists.
