Coup Droit · Tennis legend

The main draw is out and all the Q spots are against unseeded players so would be nice if Tara could come through this FQR match . . .

The main draw is now out, there are spaces for qualifiers against one WC and three other unseeded players two of which Tara has played before. Tara has a 50-50 record against the two she has played before, winning the more recent encounters.

Mervatron · Masters Series Champion

Back to back wins. Let's hope she can make it 3 in a row
