Main draw is out, and as usual Jo has a tough starter - Julia Georges seeded 10. And Naomi Osaka is in her section as well, if she makes it to the thrd round.
Even with a MD first round win, Katie won't quite break the top 100, regardless of what other players do - it would take her to 611 points, still 7 short of Kr Plskova who is 100 on live rankings. Edging closer though !
Ah yes, I hadn't seen the MD yet and hadn't realised/ remembered she would only get another 10 points for the round 1 win, because it is a R64 draw. It seems strange that she gets 20 points for a QR1 win, but will only get another 20 points added for two more wins, including in the MD!
A Premier Mandatory 64 player draw R1 win earns 65 points ( 10 points is for initial MD competitors losing in R1 ).
Katie's current 16th counter is 5 points so she has so far added 15 net points for a 586 total. Qualification plus a MD R1 win would put her on :
571 + 30 + 65 - 5 = 661 points.
Much better Go, Katie ! ( and Heather ! )
And indeed that makes much more sense! So just two wins Katie needs for a top 100 ranking!

Great win for Katie. Heather has started but is *0-5 in the first set vs Diyas. There will be at least 2 LLs but not being seeded and Tomljanovic and at least 2 other seeds going out in the FQR, I doubt she would get one if she didn't turn this around.
I'm not sure how LLs work as they seem to differ by event, but of the 8 FQR matches, 6 seeds have crashed out with Poots still to play, Hev is currently the only unseeded player to lose so I doubt she will sneak in.
