I see only 13 players in the qualifying draw ( so 3 byes straight into the MD ) with just 2 seeds so I presume just 2 ranked players.

Realistically very much more chance of points here for many of our lower / unranked players than trying to qualify for the home 25K. Not necessarily saying their general choices are wrong, but no denying that there is opportunity here.

Hopefully Dominique gets a good draw.

Dasha low on confidence but surely she must win this one!

Not bad draws, but Dominique has a nack of getting through qualifying and failing to pick up a point.
I hope this will change tomorrow.

She was *2-0 up with game points, pulled back to *2-2 but has just saved a break point to hold for 3-2*

Saves 6 break points but not the 7th (no game points) to go down 3-4*

A double fault gives her a break back point, but she misses it and it's looking a bit bleak at *3-5

Ivkovic takes the 2nd set 6-3 then Dasha has bp(s?) in the 1st game of the 3rd but doesn't take them then gets broken in the next game

6-2 3-6 0-2*

Oh Dasha. Misses 3 break points, then opens with 2 doubles, but she saves 3 match points to hold from 0-40.

3-5*

breaks for *4-5, then holds and breaks again.

*6-5

Saves break point, misses match point, gets another...

WINS!!!!

62 36 75

Well done girl!
