Have a good day there, paulisi, look forward to hearing more. I see they are using 6 courts tomorrow, with British interest in all 16 matches.

Qualifying draw is now out.
Sam Murray did not get a wildcard, nor did Holly Staff(qwc)
Good to see so many youngsters in the draw.
Looks like Lissy, Emma R and Ella Taylor all have wildcards. Not sure on the last, but I will find out.

My guess is Ali Collins

It will be a major surprise if any Brits go through to the 2nd round apart from Sam, Eden and Freya.

Maybe K Pitak vs Orange? The latter did lose 0 and 0 in her last match a few weeks ago. Hopefully Ola and Popescu can give good accounts of themselves.

You've got the Pitak's ranking the wrong way round Peter, KP is the 16th seed.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Good to see Emma Hurst back. She was wta 850 or so, interesting to see where she is now.
As said above, the pitaks certainly have a chance.

Helen40 · Grand Slam Champion

I know it's jumping the gun, but I'm really curious to see how Emma. The jump up and a home tournament.

Helen40 · Grand Slam Champion

paulsi, how much is it to get in?

RedSquirrel · Satellite level

Maybe a coincidence, but Emilie Lindh withdrew from Antalya on Wednesday - which is the same day as the WCs have to be nominated.

Fairly sure that there is no charge

paulisi · Tennis legend

I've never paid to watch qualifying or main draw at lower level ITF.

Jaggy1876 · Grand Slam Champion

I may be in attendance on Tuesday as Im about 3 miles away from where the tournament is that day I believe. I may report back if the big bad Wolf will allow. Should still be some interest then as most of the first round games will be played then.

Is this going to be one of those events (quals) where you don't know the scores until the matches have finished?
