Mirabelle gets the worst Q spot though (although looks nice on paper for Fran);
R1: NJOZE, Mirabelle (GBR) (Q) WR 1037 v KVATSABAIA, Sofia (GEO) (4) WR 399 (CH 362 Feb. 12)
R1: STEPHENSON, Fran (GBR) WR 578 v KLEINSTEUBER, Theresa (GER) (Q) WR 1023 (CH 894 Oct 14)
We (or me at least) know by now that Mirabelle always get nasty draws. It's always a given.
If I were to advise them, I would say abandon 10K/15K tournaments and carry on with 25Ks since she will always meet the same level of players anyway as has always been the case in the first round in 10Ks but with better rewards if she pulls through.
No point wasting time in 10/15Ks when you always get 25K and above level players every time from the first round :).
Being based in France, I would say she can get top quality matches in the French CNGT when there aren't any 25K plus events. Saves on expenses as well but with continuous development.
