RE: British Women - Top 25 etc table

Updated with the 6 October published rankings and all results/draws to the end of Sunday, I'll continue adding results and draws as they come in as usual.

Also, the historical year-end rankings summaries table (the next three links on http://www.britishtennis.net/stats.html after the top 25 links) have been updated with year to date data as well - there is one more GB woman in the top 500 than there was at the end of last year now that Naomi Broady has regained her place there, with Amanda Elliott getting into the top 500 having made up for Natasha Khan leaving it earlier this year.

Laura "Robinson" (as Ken referred to her on Radio Tennis last night wink

- still, impressive that he knows of her existence! smile

) would need to reach the QFs in Barnstaple this week to go straight into the top 500.

I've updated which players have LTA senior or junior profiles (the "L" links in the "Other Links" section) and added some more links to the third and last column of the "Other Links" section as well.

Instead of only showing a link if the player has an official site, that column now shows one of the following (if any of them exist for that player) in this order of priority:

O = their official site ("o" if it has not been updated recently)
F = the most comprehensive fansite I can find ("f" if it has not been updated recently)
w = their Wikipedia entry

The F, w and u links will get replaced if and when I become aware of a site further up the above pecking order appearing for that player.

Your amazing resource becomes more amazing by the day! Chapeaux!

Thanks, and apologies for the late update, I was out yesterday evening having fun and ended up not getting back until mid-day today. Shocking, I know ... LOL

Anyway, Thursday's results and this morning's results from Australia are now on the table.

The week 42 table now includes the new official rankings.

There is now a provisional week 43 table for the GB Top 25 women at http://www.britishtennis.net/gbtop25f/2008wk43f.htm - looks like quite a busy week!

steven · Tennis legend

A week 44 table can now be accessed via http://www.britishtennis.net/stats.html - it's a quite a quiet week for the women.

You missed off Jodie Williams in Pretoria. What's worrying is that you actually posted in that thread on GBTG. I think the pick'em is addling with your brain.

No argument with that! Corrected (or will be in a minute)

Is it worrying that every time I see that wolf has done the last post on this thread, I think "help, what errors have I made this time?" LOL

wolf · Tennis legend

Another [obvious] mistake again I'm afraid. You forgot to change Bally's round.

Also, poor, overlooked, Jodie has won her first round match in Saffa land.

steven · Tennis legend

1st one - guilty as charged

2nd one - I just hadn't got around to it - or had she already won a round when you posted before?

Both done now (and, believe it or not, before I looked at the thread

)

Thanks though, with so much data to keep track of, it really helps to have someone keeping a close eye on it.

The week 45 women's table is now up - remarkably few of the GB top 25 are in action for a week in which there's an ITF event in the UK, is Sunderland really that awful?!

Britain's safest small city, so we're told! Town seems reasonably attractive from a casual drive round - facilities at the tennis centre seem good to the spectator - eight courts, quality wee restaurant, lots of comfortable sitting space. I enjoyed my time spent spectating there last year - of course, Mad's company helped a lot!

Not a bad place at all - and that's quite an admission from a Novocastrian! However it is not the easiest place to get to - and those hotel prices must be pretty off-putting. (see the Sunderland thread - recommended hotel £75 a night. . .)
