Being optimistic, here's hoping for all 8 qualifiers to be GB(At least there'll be at least 2!!)
Did they have just have to host it in the same week as the Nationals? With the men, I understand it to an extent as you need to have tournaments in blocks, but why couldn't this be held last week in Wrexham or somewhere else next week?
Sad that Em lost so early but obviously Broady is a tough customer. I think it's kinda great that Em is playing doubles with the girl who beat her in one of the US 10K finals, hopefully they can take the title.
