Amanda had to withdraw because she was still playing in Jersey today. Georgie is not in qualifying, and has probably been promoted to the main draw, along with a couple of others. Lets hope that there are no Brits in the late withdrawals from the main draw.
They are all in the main draw, but the last pairing is unfortunate.

Of all tyrannies a tyranny exercised for the good of its victim may be the most oppressive.... those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience
Good to take the positives, but Katie's really gone off the boil in the last couple of months and lost to a lot of players ranked below her. Let's hope she can turn it round soon.
What a thumping for Katie but hope Naomi keeps that standard up this week. Shame they had to meet really in rd1 but a decent set of results from the girls.
