Not the best of draws, particularly when you look at the Tianjin and Osaka fields, but Larsson is the sort of top 100 player Naomi should be aiming to beat if she wants to move up the rankings.

The preceding 2¾ hour marathon match has just finished, so Naomi B should be up presently.

Had a realistic shot at GB #2 this week. Not sure if she's ever been there before.
Moot now

Such a shame for her, would have been nice for Joko to also have company in the MD.

I don't think Johanna is in MD here. confuse
She was in MD in Tianjin, but withdrew. She is still down for Q in Luxembourg next week (along with Naomi).
I think Tianjin had the most potential upside of the three draws, but I'm sure there is a good reason to have not travelled out.

Well... this draw sucks.
R1: Jocelyn RAE/Anna SMITH (GBR/GBR) 204 vs. Lucie HRADECKA/Barbora ZAHLAVOVA STRYCOVA (CZE/CZE) [1] 56

Naomi is not in the doubles draw.
