Week 29 - WTA International ($227K) - Bad Gastein, Austria - Clay


Another rotten draw.
Joss & Anna missed out on being seeded by 3 places, and this is a weak event where they might have done rather well.
They still might, of course, but start off magnetically attracted to, by far, the toughest match on offer - second seeds are WR 122

R1: Jocelyn RAE/Anna SMITH (GBR/GBR) 138 vs. Lara ARRUABARRENA/Lucie HRADECKA (ESP/CZE) [1] 66

Lose the first set 7-6(8)

Not sure why they aren't on the hard courts of Istanbul to be honest. I'd have gone there then Baku.

Or, if they are hitting the states, had two weeks off of intense training on hardcourt rather than play two clay events. But then what do I know.

Big improvement from last week, and an unlucky draw. Regarding the scheduling, they reached the finals of Bastad last year, so thats most likely why they wanted to play there again this year, so you if you're going to play 1 event on clay you might as well play another than swap surfaces. Hindsight and all that is a great thing.
