A good win for Mel, and a chance for 10 more points against another qualifier.

Oops, sorry about that. This is really quite weird - Mel posted that over an hour ago on twitter, yet we manage to post it within 70 seconds of each other. confuse

Go on Mel. Chance now to get back on a bit of a roll. She babdly needs a great week to fire up some inspiration.

If there was ever a draw to get you back on the right track this would seemingly be it. I hope Mel takes advantage in the same way she did in the weak Aussie 25ks, best of luck to her.

There must be something about this place that makes it more productive for Brits. Bally sailed through this tournament last year only dropping a few games. Eventhough her draw on the face of it looks to have been very helpful I still firmly believe that Mel has taken a decent step in the right direction this week. Very interesting now that we have a plethora of British players ranked between between 190 and 350 all fighting for Wimby wildcard spots.

An expected loss I guess after their previous encounter. Still it's good to see Mel winning consecutive matches again, hopefully she get a few more wins in Japan and end this tour brimming with confidence.

No improvement from their last meeting but still a better week with 14 ranking points earned.

Kinda worrying that Mel didnt think about a way to get to Xu ut signs of improvement are certainly positive.
