Eliz my pick to win this week.

 

Well done, tharris - you're still in there and going strong !

Sounds like my 'fave', Donia, is going to have her work cut out tomorrow (many thanks to paulisi for the report - really good to read).

 

4 different girls in the doubles final - Ali COLLINS (GBR) / Louie MCLELLAND (GBR)  v Joely LOMAS (GBR) / Elise VAN HEUVELEN (GBR)

Thanks, although it's not the most outrageous of predictions. I believe most of us on this forum are at least somewhat aware of her talent. That being said, I can see Megan Davies derailing my prediction.
If I had to guess, I'd say one of Maloney/Abdel-Aziz/Davies/Timotin will win the title.

 Timotin(the Irish girl, based at Sutton) looked the least likely of the four girls to win.

To be fair i'd never heard of Eliz before this week.

Interesting stuff.

I do agree that tharris is ahead of the game here. I'd be pretty shocked if I was in the minority on this forum in saying that I wasn't somewhat aware of Eliz's talent. OK, I wasn't aware of her full stop.

...and I actually take some interest in the juniors, just I'm not up at all on those in their very early stages age and gradewise.

So we're learning :)

Perhaps I am ahead of the game. She's our national champion U14, and has been one of our top '00 girls for the past 2 or 3 years. You'll be hearing more from her, I assure you.

After predicting a Simon Carr win, Matt Story beat him in straight sets and will play Luke Oakley.

Congratulations to Joely and Elise who won the doubles title.

Yes. I was sure her name had come up a couple of times quite recently (partly because it jumps out at me because I always think it's a typo and missing an 'a' - Eliz ????)

I went back and looked it up and found she'd beaten Emily Appleton in the nationals (U14).

DavidC no doubt has been following her too.

Good info:

Digging around on the LTA website, I found the following u-14 rankings:

91Megan Hopton1033083282000Yorkshire157117

101Aleksandra Topalovic1056798172000Middlesex156618

 

I'm not sure how accurate these rankings reflect the 2000 boys and girls as there are quite a few missing that I would have expected to see on the list
