RE: Week 32 - ITF ($25K) - Landisville, PA, USA - Hard


Jo on cruise control, as would be expected of the highest ranked player left in the field, Razzano is ranked 92 this week but is out and the #1 seed is ranked 117 to Jo's 115 smile

Reminded during 'pre-Tweet checks' that Naomi has played Anderson before - she beat her in QR1 at the US Open in 2011.

Funnily enough, Tara's R2 opponent lost to Anderson in QR2 in Vancouver just before Anderson lost to Jade.

ITF livescores says she faced two - they must have been very close to the end.

Jo has now overtaken Hev for 2013-only points (417 to 416) - just something I couldn't help noticing, obviously there are good (i.e. unfortunate) reasons why Hev hasn't racked up more points.

R2: BROADY, Naomi (GBR) 287 v ANDERSON, Robin (USA) WC 875


Boserup hit a career high 174 in April last year but ended 2012 with a long losing streak, including a 3 & 1 loss to Samantha Murray in Toronto. It seems she had shoulder problems and, after the end of the season, decided took a few months out to get them sorted out. She came back about 6 weeks ago and thrashed Naomi 0 & 1 to qualify for the 50K event in Yakima. She should be a good test for Jo, but shouldn't give her too much trouble unless Jo's exploits are beginning to catch up with her. They have actually met once before, in Surprise in 25K, and Boserup won, but it was by retirement after a close (7-5) 1st set.

As I mentioned earlier, Naomi beat Anderson in US Open qualifying in 2011, the year the latter reached a career high of 640, while Anderson upset 2nd seed Razzano today but also lost to Jade in straight sets in the FQR in Vancouver last week, after beating Tara's opponent Pandzic in QR2.

Pandzic is a 30-year-old, who first played a Brit in a senior event (Lucie Ahl at Tipton 10K) way back in 2001. She last played a Brit in 2008, the year she hit her career high of 136, thrashing Mel 1 & 0 in Monzón 75K qualifying - a tournament that saw Mel then get a LL place and lose to Anne who then lost to an unseeded Yanina Wickmayer, who then beat Naomi Cavaday before eventually losing in the Final to another unseeded player - a certain Petra Kvitová!

 Also the fact that Jo has played 21 tournaments to Hev's 13 would tend to skew that figure slightly wink
