All 3 doubles matches are scheduled tomorrow, but none of the singles matches involving Brits. Naomi has reported via her website that she has been in hospital with a mystery illness (hence the doubles w/o last week) but hopes to be well enough to play here.

Mel's website says she won. Doesn't say the score. Naomi's website not updated.

Good win for Naomi. I hope she can pull off an upset against No3 seed Sacha Jones. Naomi has lost a couple of tight matches and her performances have probably merited more points than she has actually won on this Aus tour.

WD Emily

I think there is a chance that puts her back into top 500

I guess that is the end of Naomi's tour down under. She's had a good two months-as one of the lower DAs she's had a QF, 2x R2 and 2x R1 all at 25K level, but most importantly has always gone out to seeds, never to players ranked lower or about where she currently is.

The step from 10K->25K is clearly being made, and she has put herself into the top 450 for the first time. Solid work.
