Sensible comments, as always, from Naomi:

A tough 2 days for me but I got a lot of court time back on the clay! She was too good today... Really knows her way around a clay court

(NB not sure I agree with the 'training block but let's play a few matches too' approach for the youngsters. But greater minds than mine (!) obviously think it's a good idea . . . .)

Hmm, CD, you're not the only one rather wondering about this training block / playing matches mix. Falling between two stools springs to mind with perhaps confused focus and maybe even injury potential with different preparation.

And Katy Dunne indicated in her tweet after her QR1 match that she certainly found it a bit of a strange match for her, not I hasten to add that she said anything in disagreement.

Be interesting to see how the girls are doing in a couple of months.
