Week 40 - ITF ($25K) - Vallduxó, Spain (clay)
Permalink  

Vall de Uxó (in Spanish), Vall d'Uixo (in the local dialect), Vallduxó according to TenisSpain, so I'll go with that! LOL

Much more importantly, Amanda should be the in the main draw here and Manisha is back on tour after a couple of months out.

QR1: (q12) Manisha Foster WR 823 v Victoria Smirnova (BEL) UNR

Smirnova is a 14-year-old who is unranked in seniors or juniors. She thrashed a Brit (Kyria Dunford) 1 & 1 in QR1 at her last ITF, a 10K in June.

Will probably end up playing a good 15 yr old Spanish youngster(Moldavian born) which will be tough.

FQR: (q12) Manisha Foster WR 823 v (q8) Aliona Bolsova Zadoinov (ESP) WR 634 (=CH)

As paulisi says, this will be tough - the 15-year-old has reached WR 634 on the back of only a few tournaments - she won a 10K as a qualifier earlier this month and qualified for a 25K this week.

L32: Amanda Carreras WR 346 v (6/WC) Laura Pous Tió (ESP) WR 242 (CH 72 in 2012)

LPT won a 25K in Casablanca in May but has been out of action since June. So she could be out of practice and very beatable or under-ranked and a terrible draw ...

Edit: updated rankings

Despite several swaps of serve in the final set, Manisha was broken serving to get the game back to 5-5 and lost 6-4 in the final set.
