Q2: WEBLEY-SMITH, Emily (GBR) 385 v Black,Tornado Alicia (USA) WC 860 (=CH, 16 years old)

This is not the pushover it might look, 16 year old Tornado has just blown away the 18 year old 8th seed ranked 218.

Of course if Emily repeats today's form it should turn out to be a breeze.

Huge opportunity for both girls. Tornado is very talented but she might not be used to Ems spins and variety.

I think on current form Em might just sneek it. Great win today even if Paszek was a little below her best.

Fantastic news.

Most girls would hang up their boots or concentrate on doubles at that age, but I love EWS's attitude and hope she keeps on winning. Tornado will be really tough though.

Now, now - the WTA top two singles players in the world are WAY older than Em - she's got YEARS (well, over two years at least) to catch them up smile

Will be interesting to see how the two doubles pairs manage with two difficult opponents. I don't think that Hev will win but there's always a decent chance if she plays as well as she can!

Not so much a breeze, more a force five hurricane.

Bah! Still 12 points is equitable to be winning a 10k so all in all not a bad excursion to DC
