Week 38 - Womens ITF (10K) - Limoges, France


A host of Brits are going to make their way to this 10k event. The highlight will hopefully be Laura Robson's professional debut, she is still on the alts list though.

In the main draw there, Anna Smith should be the top seed, Yasmin Clarke the 3rd seed, Emily Webley-Smith the 8th seed, and they are joined by Olivia Scarfi. Nicola Mooney and Lucy Warbuton could turn up in qualifying.

Great start Laura. 100% winning record. Seriously though, hope this is just the start of an awesome future for her.

Laura won 6-2 6-0

Her stats:

68% first serves in play
winning 19/28 on first and 8/13 on second
break points saved 1/2
0 aces 2 dfs

On return
won 15/27 against first and 15/20 against second
took 6/10 bps

(might have been a more interesting match on clay given Alize's results but on hard Laura just has too much quality)

The other two Brits managed a couple of pretty deep lows to balance out Laura's convincing win: cry

FQR: ROBSON, Laura (GBR) UNR beat LIM, Alize (FRA) 2 961 by 2 & 0 biggrin
FQR: MOONEY, Nicola (GBR) 4 980 lost to SORG, Marine (FRA) UNR by 2 & 0 bleh
FQR: WARBURTON, Lucy (GBR) 6 998 lost to SAVINYKH, Valeria (RUS) UNR by 3-6 6-3 6-3 bleh 

L32: SMITH, Anna (GBR) 1 361 v HITIMANA, Caroline (FRA) Q 1053
L32: SCARFI, Olivia (GBR) 870 v CAZEAUX, Amandine (FRA) Q 965 - winner to play winner of previous match
L32: CLARKE, Yasmin (GBR) 4 636 v DOUCHET, Sylvie (FRA) WC UNR
L32: WEBLEY-SMITH, Emily (GBR) 8 687 v SAVINYKH, Valeria (RUS) Q UNR - in same Q as Yasmin, same half as Anna
L32: ROBSON, Laura (GBR) UNR v BALDUCCI, Alica (ITA) 875 - winner likely to play no. 2 seed in R2
