There were only 8 players in qualifying, so nobody actually had to play and Anna will be in the main draw.

R32:

FITZPATRICK, Anna (GBR) WC (7) 876 v RILEY Alexandra (USA) 1032
REN Jessica (GBR) v Marcela ALVES PEREIRA VALLE (BRA) UNR age 18
STEPHENSON Francesca (GBR) (8) v SHERIF Sara (EGY) WC UNR

Seems a pretty kind draw in a quite weakish field

I'm glad Jess didn't draw a seed given that she'd have been seeded herself if Anna hadn't got into qualifying as a WC.

So did Anna forget to enter and just turn up for qualifying sign in? She would have got in directly from her ranking, i assume.

You couldn't have asked for better draws for all three girls - expect at least 2 to win, hopefully 3.(assuming Fran is fully fit and the Brazilian is no ringer)

How can you have a quali draw, then have byes in the main?

It is weird but there are 22 direct entrants in the draw, 8 'qualifiers' (none of whom had to play a match to qualify) and 2 wild cards, so maybe 2 of the players they were going to give wild cards to pulled out at the last moment and with no matches played in qualifying, there were no lucky losers to slot in.

Well, it's true that the draw is pretty kind but Fran's hardly been on a roll of good form so the match still needed winning:

STEPHENSON Francesca (GBR) (8) def. SHERIF Sara (EGY) WC UNR 7-5 6-1
