Naomi would have to reach the final to get back in the top 100 - currently held on 614 points. Naomi has points to drop (see the magic spreadsheet), so needs the 90 from reaching the final.
Losing to an unranked local when you are a seed, results on tour don't come any worse than that. She needs to take a different step to address her dire form than simply turning up at more tournaments to lose in R1. A break looks like it is callled for. Traning block. Mental recharge. All that stuff.
3/4 Brits in a doubles match with a stuck scoreboard right towards the potential close.
Tara & Harret are on the brink against Naomi & Belgian doubles specialist, Ysaline Bonaventure, 1-6 5-6
