If Anne wins this match she will face an old adversary in R2, Tamarine Tanasugarn. They played at Monzon in 2010 with Anne finally winning the marathon match 6-7 7-6 7-5.
R1: Irena PAVLOVIC (FRA) beat Anne KEOTHAVONG (GBR) [3] 7-5 6-1
Didn't think this match was going to be till tomorrow
I guess that means Laura will be GB No.1 next week then - good for her but a shame she achieves it by virtue of Anne and Heather losing rather than by winning herself.
If Anne doesn't rediscover some of her better form shortly with a tonne of points to defend she sadly is going to plunge down the rankings. I thought this was a good opportunity to come down a level and get some wins.
