A bit cheeky though to be playing a 25k tournament! Rather non sensical as well because she will have to fly back for grass shortly.
Wonder if she is local.
She's not local - born in Cincinnati, and lives in Santa Monica, California. She was given a late WC entry, so obviously decided to fly back to the US after losing in RG qualis, and was accommodated by the organisers to raise their profile... Emily then being the most immediate loser. Mind you the top seed would otherwise have been Khazaniuk who beat her last week...
