Tara Moore was a finalist in this event last year, but unless there are late withdrawals we don't have a single direct entrant this time. Seven wildcards have been announced: Lucy Brown, Francesca Stephenson, Katy Dunne, Daneika Borthwick, Pippa Horn, Katie Boulter and Jessica Ren.
Qualifying takes place on Thursday (2 rounds) at the Civil Service Sports Ground in Chiswick, as is traditional - presumably because of the lack of availability of enough grass courts in the area on Friday/Saturday - with the main draw starting on Sunday.
The qualifying draw should be available on the link below later this evening
The four matches played yesterday produced no British qualifiers, though Emma Devine was close to an upset. The remaining 4 matches are scheduled for this morning with the main draw later today.
No further upsets in qualifying, so Sophie Watts and Beth Askew are the only British qualifiers, but Harriet Dart, Hollie Davies and Lana Rush get in as lucky losers. Jessica Ren cops the toughest draw out of the Brits - against fourth seed Yulia Putintseva. Main Draw:
As expected, a pretty poor day. But at least Katy won't be playing the top seed. Although Hardebeck's victory isn't too surprising seeing as she has a good senior rank. Well done also to Laura and Franchesca.
