Strange back to back $10K's in ZAF.
This week, Laura is ranked ninth in the main draw, next week she'll barely scrape into the qualifying draw.

#1 seed in both events, is WR177, Chanel Simmonds. #8 seed this week is WR900, Erin Clark.

Erin Clark is who Laura might play in R2 if she gets through R1. Th other possibilitiy is a match against, erm, Kuznetsova - thankfully, Varvara, not Svetlana.

Laura is also in doubles, and seeded 4.

There will be live scoring for all matches at: http://www.tennisscores.de/rsaapplet/livescorer.html

R1: DEIGMAN, Laura (GBR) 1032 v [Q] OR, Lee (ISR) UNR (CH 1109 11/2010)

Great chance for Laura to get another point, and with it a probable new CH; against a 17 yo Q, who's 0-4 in ITF MD in 2012.
Laura's singles is last up on her court, not before 10:30 UK time. [Edit: corrected time]


WD QF: R1: DEIGMAN/PAUL(GBR/IND) vs. CASCINO/THOLEY (FRA/FRA)

Disappointing result.
Could hardly ever find a better chance for a point than than to play a winless Q in R1 of just about the weakest $10K of the year. no

At the end of October Lee Or played in a 25K qualifying tournament and beat players ranked 771 and 601 so she may be better than the UNR would suggest.

At least she now has some time to enjoy Potchefstroom, a lovely university town.

Also, she was ranked (from three R1 wins in 10Ks) two years ago when she was 15 and was a top 200 junior earlier this year, though that probably doesn't mean that much. Still a decent draw though and a pity Laura couldn't pick up another ranking point.
