Week 19 - ITF ($25K) - Hua Hin, Thailand Hard

Well done to Harriet, that was just looking a touch sticky at 6-0 *5-3 and then BPs in that last game.

She wins 6-0 6-3

Very good win indeed, and 18 points gained on the way to a new CH

wimdledont · Challenger level

A career milestone for Harriet, as her new CH shoud see her just poke her nose into the top 300, and qualify for a Special Ranking in the event of injury.

Just checked the tables, and Harriet has 35 points to come off on 5th June, so she isn't likely to stay in the top 300 for long, despite having several single-point counters remaining. Still time to make up for that though !

Will even have an extra week since the French Open is a week later this year ( as are essentially the whole clay and grass seasons ) and 5th June will be mid French Open. These points wont come off until 12th June *

On Harriet generally, good to see her now picking up such wins and points, there having been a discussion recently regarding her being close to her CH but that more because her slowish start to this year was less slow than it was last year. She will certainly as said take out her CH now and maybe as hoped then she just performs better after the first three or four months.

* Steven, if you read this, I think all your 5th June and 10th July drop-offs need put back a week.

Harriet's 8 outings this year, all around the $25K level, have showed a very nice progression. In order that the tournaments were played: FQR, FQR, R32, R16, R16, QF, SF, SF
With the final one still live.
That looks very promising, and I hope we reach the logical conclusion to that line very soon.

Yes she will be going into the grass court season in much better form than last year. Hopefully as consistent but just a bit stronger all round

Priesty · Challenger level

She'll also be defending 30 points for reaching the FQR of Wimbledon towards the end of June.

Great week for Harriet. Hope she can keep it up.

Harriet lost 3-6 4-6 against the top seed.

Good week, though.

She's like a hedgehog - she just needs a bit of time at the start of the year to get going
