Mandy Carreras has withdrawn from Thailand

I don't think that Tom F is down for Egypt. But Luke Bambridge is.

Good to see so many GB girls in the main draw. May have a decent chance of getting some good points at Loughborough and Manchester in the next couple of weeks.

Expect to see India and Grace get wildcards after this week's exploits.

Kyle is still on the entry list for Bratislava. Although there is about 1% chance that he'll get in, so there's no particular reason to withdraw, I suppose.

Pauffley should play in Challenger qualies this weekend, but Farquharson's participation probably depends on how he goes today.

Ohh, okay. Then why did Farquharson need a wild card for this week's qualies, by the way? (Although that's an ITF event and this is an ATP event, so the rules may vary).

I'd always assumed that you have to be physically present, and if you can't, then you need a wild card even if you are ranked high enough.

Cancel my wild guess as Wolf has already answered and is much more knowledgable than me.

Under ATP rules players do not need to be physically present to sign in if they have played a match, singles or doubles, on the Thursday or Friday of the previous week.

Wilcards for Loughborough go to:

Freya, Maia, Beth and Issy Wallace

QWC go to: Alannah, Grace, Louie Mclelland, Rona and Jasmine

6 Girls automatically made the main draw, with Lucy likely to be seeded. 10 in main draw and I expect a few qualifiers as well so potentially decent points for our girls

Given Tara's tweet, i guess that she's not going to Turkey.

Salmon · Tennis legend

Rice and Shornley are due to play "Not Before 5:00 pm", so they aren't going to make it to Knoxville before the deadline, even if they lose. Now where's the Hyperloop when you need it?

You don't need to be on site to sign in as long as you can commit to being there for your first match.

Because there are qualifying entry lists for futures but not for challengers.
