Not much of a silver lining I know, but her place in the MD has gone to Heather so she will no longer have to qualify.

ESPN, and others, are certainly reporting it as ongoing wrist problems:

I would suppose that Casey is also keen to be reunited with Ash Barty; particularly as she cannot hope to play the Olympics with Shvedova (unless Australian immigratioon really gets a move on).

If Ms Dellacqua and Ms Barty play doubles together, that would certainly be about the most unusual 25K doubles draw imaginable ... even if they are both rusty.

So sorry about Ms Robson's ongoing wrist issues - courage, Mlle Robson! And all best wishes to her.
