Slightly disappointing set of results with only Cav playing to her potential.

What was Mel doing?? Tho I suppose any wildcard could be the next Laura...

In fact, Edjesgaard took Laura to 3 sets earlier this year as a junior! though she's not done much else. Come on Mel, you need this title!

A little disappointing that the contingent has been halved, Mel now to face another ( rather better ) WC and Naomi to face Jade's conquerer :

L16 : (3)  Melanie South WR 143 vs (WC) Emma Laine ( FIN ) WR 461

L16 : Naomi Cavaday WR 230 vs   (7) Lina Stanciute ( LTU) WR 197

Edit : OK, beaten, but my rankings are up to date     smile

It looks as if Mel's result was 7-5 6-4 but I can't tell if she won or lost.

Bad week for the ladies this time.

Very oouch. I was fearing the worst when Cav hadn't tweeted her result. Onto Barnstaple for both of them where expectations shouldn't be too high.

How disappointing.
