Week 11 - ITF ($15K) - Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt - Hard


I notice that Nadja Gilchrist, the Bath based American whom CD mentioned in the Week 9 Sharm thread, is back in the first round of qualifying here (with 3 rounds to go). That's a bit tough after reaching the QF last week AND the final two weeks before, and winning one round, the week in between. In short Nadja will have 10 points and 3 counters at the end of Indian Wells and thus a reasonable ranking... but for the moment can't even get a bye into Q2!  

Jodie Burrage is in the MD here this week.

Good break for Jodie, as Sanesi withdraws, and the new LL opponent has a ranking 600 places lower, and no especial pedigree.

R32: Jodie Anna BURRAGE (GBR) 542 v. (LL) Paulina JASTRZEBSKA (POL) 1098 (CH 1095, Feb 2018)

They're under way, and JAB is taking advantage nicely, *4-2

Jodie efficiently took advantage of the good fortune, 6-3 6-0
Moves to 3-4 on the year; looking to end the week hopefully above .500
Awauting the winner of Siska/Karregat to determine her next opponent.

Jodie reached the final in Sharm during Miama last year, so has 7+1 coming off by the end of the Miama tournament. She also has unused 1 counters, and with the 2 points so far here that means she will be -8+3 after Miama = -5 points. Jodie is playing next week in Sharm too, when the field will be weaker and she will be seeded. So between this week and next, she really needs to make up those further 5 points coming off....

Well done Jodie
Based on nothing but a gut feeling, I think she'll beat Parrizas-Díaz.
