Can't ask for a better opener than a qualifier, and barring it being de Brito, it's a match she should be winning.

The best scenario would be 1 of the Brits qualifying and drawing Anne, as it would mean 1 Brit would make the 2nd round

Since as you say, Anne should be winning v a qualifier, surely the best option is that she plays a non Brit Qulaifier, and if Mel and / or Elena get through they get a winnable tie elsewhere.

Might take Mel v Elena in the qulaifier v qualifier spot, even with minor detail winner likely to play Venus Williams smile

Anne got Alexa Glatch (who beat Katie in qualifying). Must win match for Anne with 60 points on offer.

Yep, as great a draw as she could have asked for. Cmon Anne!

Hopefully Glatch will be tired and anne fresh. :p

Although it is a reasonable draw Glatch is a big threat. Since Anne last won a match Alexa has beaten two players ranked inside or around 100 who both beat Anne on US hard courts earlier this year. Alexa has the form, momentum and crowd with her, and the advantage of having won a match here before. On the other hand the fact Alexa played Katie will help Anne's preparation. Anne cannot complain about her draw but I am not very optimistic that she will win.

Anne's match is scheduled to be 2nd on Court 10 following a men's singles match. Good luck Anne.
