Melanie South should be the  top seed in a fairly weak main draw, as she starts the first of 3 tournaments in India and Japan to try and achieve the points she needs to gain direct entry to the Australian Open main draw. Jocelyn Rae withdrew from qualifying yesterday, but there is still a strong British contingent, though Emily Webley-Smith and Jade Windley are unfortunately in the same section.

Qualifying draw:

(3) Emily WEBLEY-SMITH (GBR) v Inna KUZMENKO (RUS)
 Sagarika PHADKE (IND) v (13) Jade WINDLEY (GBR)

(4) Jade CURTIS (GBR) v Shivika BURMAN (IND)
Abhilasha AHUJA (IND) v (9) Prerana-Mythri APPINENI (IND)

(8) Natasha KHAN (GBR) v Estelle MEHTA (IND)
Poojashree VENKATESHA (IND) v (11) Nungnadda WANNASUK (THA)

Good start, and with nothing outstanding in the career records of Jade C or Natasha's opponents there's a good chance for 3 qualifiers here.

Well Emily's result yesterday might have been... er... suspect but probably a better chance for bigger points if she qualifies and goes deep again.

Shame she has to face Jade W though cry Wanna support the Lincs lass!

Yes, we have 3 qualifiers - but not perhaps the expected 3:

(13) Jade Windley  d. (3) Emily Webley-Smith 6-3 7-5
(4) Jade Curtis  d. (9) Prerana-Mythri Appineni (IND) 6-0 6-2
(8) Natasha Khan d. (11) Nungnaddda Wannasuk (THA) 7-5 rtd

Jade's dubious reward is a first round match with Mel - I'll post the main draw later

Good results all round!

Any chance of a LL spot for Wobbly?

(Q) Hae-Sung KIM (KOR) v (WC) Alexandra KOLESNICHENKO (UZB)

Florence HARING (FRA) v (Q) Natasha KHAN (GBR)
(Q) Patrycja SANDUSKA (POL) v (Q) Silvia DISDERI (ITA)
(Q) Bojana JOVANOVSKI (SRB) v (3) Agnes SZATMARI (ROU)

Suchanun VIRATPRASERT (THA) v Vivian SEGNINI (BRA)

Well done to Jade W :) but a shame for Emily :( After such a good run of form (bar the last 'result') that's a bit of a shock but still, good for Jade :)

Well done to Jade and Tash too :D
