Does anybody know whether Amanda is entitled to any SR entries? She was certainly high enough ranked when initially injured, but I seem to remember that you have to be out injured for six months? I think Amanda may have been out for about 4 months, had a go, had surgery, and then been out for another four months. Not sure if this counts?

She's about to start dropping all of the points from her good form last Spring, so if she cannot use SRs to get into some 25ks, the she faces a long and winding road back from very nearly UNR, which will take some time if relying solely on 15k points.

Correct. None of her absences have been sufficiently long to entitle her to SR.

Her ranking in November, when she last played, was not high enough to qualify anyway, and that would be the mark that would now be used.
A player that does have a high enough ranking will sometimes chose to delay their return to competition in order to complete the waiting period, and thus qualify for, and invoke upon return, SR privileges.

Here is the month-by-month load that Mansy played in 2017:

Just to add detail:
SR applies to top 300 players - Mandy was WR398 when she last played a match)
SR requires an absence from all ranked competition, including qualifying, for a minimum of 6 months, and a maximum of 2 years from the date of your last ranked competitive match.
WTA Ranking System XIV.C.1.a-b

So Mandy does not qualify on either fron, and you need both.
Hopefully, the LTA can offer WC etc. Whether Mandy wants to play hard/grass that that would entail is another question.

Thanks blob; I feared that this was the case. Seems that she hasn't played the system very well.
