I would imagine that Mandy will be in Wimbledon qualifying rather than Holland.

Katie B maybe there too if she's fit and wants to be there.

I believe Nottingham is a 250, not a 500 paulisi.

correct - I forgot to change it as Queens was a 500

Wimbledon Qualifying is somewhere in Roehampton? I assume its open to watch? Thinking of popping along to watch in a couple of weeks.

The Optimist · ATP qualifying

The Bank of England Sports Ground, Bank Lane, off Priory Lane, SW15

Open to all free of charge. Parking on site only for competitors and sports club members but spots on nearby roads or car park in Richmond Park.

Thanks Optimist.

What would you choose all things being equal Nottingham or Wimbledon Qualifying? Whole week off my major priority is Brit watching and accomodation for either venue or travelling between is not a problem.

I share your difficult choice. I will be spending a couple of days at one or the other but I don't know which. Both will have players (Brits + non Brits) that I want to watch.

Have you been to either before?

I've never been to Nottingham so it's not really a valid point of view, but Wimbly Qualis is great - the mix of both men and women makes it special, the sheer number of matches, and players, is great. And there's something so much more 'romantic' about a Grand Slam run than anywhere else. Tons of Brits too, at least in Day 1 and 2 ........ AND they're going to be moving it (next year or the year after?) so it might be a good idea to try it at the Bank of England Club while you can, it's certainly got a lovely atmosphere.....

Katie Swan at Wimbledon qualys v Kyle at Nottingham, still really torn. i think CD has swayed me towards Monday in rohampton. Thanks.

Strongbow · All-time great

Amanda is still down for Holland - her cohort Savoretti is also there - Laura D withdrawn from Mauritius.

Don't Know what Amanada's been promised or where Laura D will go.

Think Monday is just Men though - or are you coming for the duration?

Against Roehampton, there's no stands, no centre court. So a lot of sitting on grass, sitting on the bank (unless you're one of those people who go around with your clever folding chair). Makes it quite nice and informal but it's not for everyone.... and a definitely grim if the weather isn't great.
