R1: DEIGMAN, Laura 995 v SHLOMO, Keren (ISR) 2 508 (CH 359 last May)
A horrible-looking draw but a ray of hope, perhaps, in that Shlomo's last 5 matches (all in Israel) were:
- beaten in straight sets by a player ranked 620 - thrashed 1 & 0 by a qualifier ranked 824 (also junior no. 7, however!) - beat an Israeli wild card ranked 1052 - beaten in straight sets by a player ranked 688 - beaten in 3 sets by a player ranked 1143 (not a top junior)
