Wow, really tough draws.

Amanda, Naomi C and EWS would be my top 3.

Lepchenko is a good draw too tbh, shes not won a grass court match I dont think. georgie beat her last year on hard, doesnt really say much though.

Elliott and Silva played last year in Fes qualies, which is grass, and Elliott pushed her to 3. With both on grass it could be a different matter, though Silva won Felixstowe crushing 5 Brits on root, including Naomi B and Tara in straights.

I can't find any evidence of Diatchenko ever playing a match on grass at senior or junior level. That fact alone should make Naomi Broady the favourite.

Cavaday and Curtis not playing tomorrow?

The schedule is currently missing court 16, so expect them both to be on there:

Liz 4th on 13
Naomi B 1st on 14
Emily 2nd on 14
Amanda 1st on 15

As Kundalini says Naomi B should see this as a real opportunity playing someone who is highly ranked, but with no relevant experience on grass. Fujiwara has a fine record on grass, thumping Naomi B en route to qualifying last year, and a previous winner of Surbiton. I would make the winner of her match with Cav favourite to qualify from that section.

 

GO Cav!!
