The Italian circuit ramps up to a Grade 1, and Eleanor Dean gets a seeding here. The first seed she is scheduled to meet though is top seed and Wimbledon champion Ash Barty

R1 (L64)

So Eleanor won the 1st set then retired?

 Sadly yes - she is on the order of play for doubles tomorrow, so hopefully nothing too serious

Eleanor won her doubles match today, so clearly no major problem

I thought if you retired from singles you couldn't play doubles at that tournament?

 You can play doubles provided the tournament doctor is satisfied that the retirement was due to medical reasons, and that the medical condition has improved sufficiently to allow the player to play without significant risk.

Eleanor and partner advanced to the semis today

Only caught a few points (including one fine winner from Eleanor to break serve) but judging from the presentation Eleanor and Katerina won their second title together - the first being at the other end of the scale - a grade 5

Doubt it would be that high

 

I think she'll only gain 20 points for the title. so should climb to around 65

Doubles Final

(5) Dean/Siniakova (GBR/CZE) d. (4) Barty/Sanders (AUS) 6-4 7-6(5)

Very good win against two Aussies who are already ranked around 300 WTA in doubles (Barty also in singles) so the sort of opposition you expect in a 10K or even 25K final. In the few points I watched Siniakova was scrambling a lot of balls back from the baseline while Eleanor was the net executioner.

Where does this put her in the rankings? Around 50?
