Week 44 - ITF ($15K) - Sunderland, GB Hard


With Stefanini dumped out by Tiffany, good chance of more points for Tiff and the draw opening right up for Jodie.

Massive upset from Tiffany there
A CH scalp by over 300 places, and, it's only her third ever MD win in a pro event, in her over eight years of trying!

however she has qualified a couple of times at 25K - which is where she picked up her points.

Stefanini is the girl that Beth beat at Wirral - not a good trip for her !

Yes... but, I repeat:
"Massive upset from Tiffany there

You seem to be inferring that it's not a big upset for a player with that record overall, and in MD, to defeat WR503; somehow equating the $25K opponents from qualifying to get other ranking points though they were never previously higher ranked than WR848; that the extra 343 places are effectively nothing; that the fact that this is only her 4th top 1000 win, was essentially expected linear progression?.
Or, am I misunderstanding?

Yes great win for Tiffany. Looking at the draw she could make the semis. World rankings this year for three US uni graduates-Tiffany, Alicia and Ella. Further proof that slightly older players are the ones who have made a real commitment and thus are deserving of more LTA support.

My congrats too to Tiffany and puts her firmly on the rankings now, with one of her current 3 counters due to come off in a month. Now she doesn't have another one due after this until June next year, so she has prospects for building a little if she able to do so.

Note that Laura S has started with an early break against Eden, but Eden also in a position to break back...*3-1

Misunderstanding. Paulisi is focused on the second clause in your sentence blob, not the first... Since when you read 'third ever MD won... in 8 years', one's first reaction is how does she have a rating then? And the answer is, which is what Paulisi is noting, is that two of her current counters are from qualifying in 25k events. I don't think anyone is doubting the enormity of this win for Tiffany!!

Well a very good win to Laura S over Eden, after Eden's run to the final last week, 6-4 6-3 6-4. Only one point difference between them at the end.
