RE: Week 25 - WTA Premier ($710,000) - Eastbourne, UK - Grass


Joss and Anna have the wildcard this week (hence why Anna is not playing Wimbledon qualifiers)

However they have drawn second seeds Petschke and Srebotnik

 Could have been worse, this is a Premier event with 6 of the world top 10 in the draw.

Yeah to be honest none of the qualifiers would have been a terrific draw, maybe Schiavone the weakest of the four but it would be a big effort for Jo to come through against any of them (especially if she plays like she did against Wozniak rather than as she did against Nara!)

Hopefully Bencic will be tired, Jo could cause an upset but it will be tough.

Races out to 40-0, misses the first two behind second serves but takes the third, her 9th (I think) in total for a brilliant 63 62 win!
