If the Swedes pick clay I'd be tempted to puther in a2 anyway, but a win here would stake her claim after a so-so start to the year.
Bally's match will be closer than at Fed Cup I think.
Krajicek was exhausted going into that Fed Cup match, so yes it should be much closer this time.
I can't see Judy changing the lineup unless there is a major change in form amongst our 4 players. Anne can be effective on clay and Bally showed last year that she has finally learnt how to maximise her performance on the surface.
Bally has a very inviting draw. Erakovic isn't in the best of form so providing she can overcome Krajicek, she has a very food chance of making the Semi's here.
They are not among the handful of R1 matches being played today, so probably Monday, possibly Tuesday - I think Hev said she had been told she will play on Monday.
