Decent wins from both of them and with Sacha Jones and Yurika Sema now both out, Naomi is the top seed left in the draw.

Uh oh, that's usually a portent of disaster as far as the Brits are concerned!

In the QFs, Mel plays (4) Rogowska, whom she beat in 3 sets at the same stage last week. Cav's opponent is yet to be decided.

Tim Henman at the Oz Open 2002 syndrome? Well I guess the fact that the top 2 seeds have been knocked out already suggests it's a pretty open field.

Good to see both of them making the QFs, and hopefully both can go even further.
That's the most obvious one, but there have been quite a few examples since. It doesn't mean it always has to happen though, obviously smile.gif

Rogowska got revenge for last week unfortunately (though Mel has now picked up 30% of her total 2010 points in the last two weeks, so it has been a very worthwhile trip so far!) but Naomi stepped up to the semi-finalist plate this week:

QF: (3) Naomi Cavaday WR 220 beat (7) Chiaki Okadaue (JPN) WR 269 by 6-3 1-6 6-2 smile.gif
QF: (5) Mel South WR 285 lost to (4) Olivia Rogowska (AUS) WR 223 by 3 & 3 cry.gif

SF: (3) Naomi Cavaday WR 220 v (6) Jessica Moore (AUS) WR 246 (CH 132 in 08) or Victoria Larriere (FRA) WR 430 (= CH)

Convincing win in the semis, now can Cav get revenge for Mel too?

The Australia 25Ks are certainly proving ( perhaps unexpectedly ) good pickings for Cav and Mel in the last two weeks with a third week coming up next week.

Cav now got a chance to get her second 25K title of the year.

She could have done with a win to really confirm it - after allowing for the Shrewsbury 2009 points she will have coming off, her new points total on Monday week would be enough for WR 199/200 this week, so T200 will be touch and go. She can make sure of it with another good week in Alice Springs of course!
