She'll withdraw - must have been wishful thinking on her part, as she definitely said another 4-5 weeks.

Nix · Futures level

Good to know she can start playing again soon. It was such unfortunate timing for her when she was playing pretty well and at such an important time of the season with all the home tournaments.

ROSAMUND · Futures level

Article by Molly McElwee in Daily Telegraph 17th October mentions that David Felgate is now working with Jodie.

Probably not unless you want to buy/pay for a Daily Telegraph subscription. The article by Molly McElwee was about the problems of the WTA with cancellations of tournaments during to Covid 19. Just mentioned David Felgate, former coach to British No 1 Dan Evans who is working with world No 274 Jodie Burrage being in Cherbourg and the lack of action on the main WTA tour.

Decent article on Jodie, nothing major, but gives some insight about struggling on court for a few months post Surbiton, mentions (or re-emphasises) the success of the BoTBs, and says the recent Cherbourg W25 event was some of the best tennis she's played.

Thanks, Ace.

Well done to Felgate, sounds as though he was really important (never been convinced about the JTC set-up, way too many under-performing players there)

And the fitness regime.

And didn't know about Ben White - always good to know a bit of 'gossip' but in the nicest sense
