Q1: THOMAS, Elizabeth (GBR) UNR lost to SALAS, Emmanuelle (FRA) UNR (15 year old) 6-2 6-1

Emmanuelle is one of the rising young stars in France.

Although, Carla Touly, the girl who made the semis at Manchester, got knocked out in the first qualie round here - strange old game . . ..

L32: Katie Boulter WR 855 v Jasmin Steinherr (GER) WR 718 (CH 503 in 2012) - H2H 1-0, 3 sets, R2 last week
L32: Manisha Foster WR 817 v (Q) Giulia Giudetti (ITA) WR 1222 (CH 1203 two weeks ago)
L32: Danielle Konotoptseva WR 729 v (Q) Simona Heinová (CZE) UNR (16yo junior WR 98)
L32: (2) Emily Webley-Smith WR 431 v Karina Venditti (BRA) WR 960 (CH 682 in 2012)

The winners of the last two matches above will play each other in R2. Manisha is in the bottom quarter as well.

Interesting odds on these matches (though bet365 don't seem to have set any odds for Katie's match) - they give Manisha a 75% chance of winning, Emily an 83% chance ... and Dasha a 50% chance, which (much as I'd love to see her win) looks highly optimistic taking everything else we know (recent form, Heinová's junior ranking, etc) into account.

A lot stronger this week as Steinherr was seeded last week. Hopeful that Katie can make it 2-0. The seed in the next round is only getting to QF's and SF's in recent tournaments, so not impossible draw.

Manisha should win, but then should be up against a seed who is a very decent junior, who is climbing up the rankings very quickly.

Dasha has to play a good junior who beat Harriet Dart earlier in the year.

Em should get through round 1, but Heinova could be very tricky in rd 2.

the odds for the British girls today were also overwhelmingly in their favour. I can't remember specifically but they were far more one-sided than, on paper, they should have been (or even on the court, given that Beth's match was, not surprisingly, quite close). Maybe lots of british pounds winging their way to support out girls ?

Cheers Steven - just backed Heinova on the back of your post. Wouldn't normally have looked.

I hope you've now jinxed Heinová then! 

Still, it's kind of win/win I suppose

P.S. Don't shoot the messenger if you lose the bet wink

L32: Manisha Foster WR 817 def. (Q) Giulia Giudetti (ITA) WR 1222 (CH 1203 two weeks ago) 6-2 6-4

Manisha was 1-4 down in the second but reeled off 5 games on the trot to win. :)
