I hear the 2 remaining MD WCs have gone to South and Moore.

Naomi won her 1st round MD last year (I watched from the stands as she overcame Garcia) and if I remember she was a MD WC then, so maybe she's opted to qualify in order to defend some of the points - who knows??

I'm going down to watch on Tuesday by the way - anyone else going?

I've booked a ticket for Tuesday; looks as though it might be the driest day next week so taking a chance. Happy to PM my mobile number if you want to say hello over a cuppa! 

 I've just PMed you mine smile

It came out yesterday (see p. 1 of this thread), though admittedly that did seem unusually early.

Naomi won the first 7 games against Wlodarczak, though has just had to save 2 bps ... and now needs to save another.

6-0 *1-1

A nightmare 1st set for Emma Devine against Dushevina (who's only in qualifying because she didn't enter in time) - just 27% 1st serves in and just 4/28 points won. She is 0-6 0-2* down now but has won 7 points in the first two games of the 2nd set and nearly held serve.
