There's only 29 players listed and it's a 48 qualifying draw.

Yes, I did wonder if she's yet to be added. Katie and Harriet have only appeared on the page in the last 24 hours

Good to see Harriet back playing again. Assuming she plays on the Monday, that will be 7 weeks since her last single's match, although looking at that list and seeing those ranked in the 60's in qualifying, it'll likely be a tough match to start things off again.

Fewer confirmed women now. In Japan, Jodie is out, Tara is near to getting in and Alicia and Freya are in touching distance on the alt list if they travel.

For Australia, Amelia is out, and everyone is out of Sharm and the US. The rest are still there (Mexico, France and Antalya).

In seems Harriet might not be in IW. The IW app shows Katie and Heather in qualifying but no Harriet.

After her second round loss today, Mandy has now pulled out of Antalya MD next week. Is still down for qualifying in France the week after (Wk 11)

Alice Gillan has also withdrawn from MD France today, Anna P is now last qualifier.

Hmm, it is a bit strange with Harriet. She obviously had a lot of matches in Brisbane and Melbourne and she'll probably have done better than she expected in both of those, but we're into March now and those 2 tournaments are the only one's she has played since winning that Norwegian 25k title in October and there doesn't seem to be anything in the horizon. It doesn't look like she will be ranked high enough for IW or Miami quals and there's been a lot of events she's missed out on recently, that she was ranked high enough to enter.

It looks like she is constantly in training on her Insta, so perhaps she is just working on a few things and the success in Brisbane and Melbourne has maybe allowed her to do that with less pressure, it's just a shame though with the 25k win and final coming off (80 points) she's hardly added anything net this year and has kind of dropped back to where she was at the beginning of the year and a chance missed to further build on her ranking.

Yes, it seems very strange re Harriet. She was actually on the IW qualifying list, but then seems to have withdrawn. Unless something has happened post her Fed Cup doubles appearances, it is extremely surprising she is not playing in IW next week. Judging from the comments of others she doesn't even seem to be in the US at the moment. IW and Miama are two big tournaments, and with two weeks for each, there is not exactly intense pressure around them either... I really don't understand why she would be missing them at this stage of her career when she wants to try and crack on and aim for the top 100.

Yeah she had a video training at the National Tennis Centre earlier this week so is/was still in London. I thought that the prior IW Q link may have been wrong and that it turns out she was not ranked high enough for quals, but she may well have just withdrawn instead. Looking at the forthcoming schedule, I'm not really sure what's her best option. Not sure if she'll be ranked high enough for Miami Qs, doesn't seem to be in the Mexico 125k list at all and apart from Shenzhen 60k in 10 days (which she's not in), there's nothing above 25k in the ITFs until April.

The weirdest thing is, she pulled out of Shrewsbury 60k before her Fed Cup matches, so I thought she'd pulled out for bigger and better things, but that's not been the case at all.

I don't have the app and can't find the info online, but those names were lifted from tennisforum and not sure what the lowest entrant is ranked at. It probably would have been borderline for Harriet 6 weeks ago as she would have been in and around 120, so perhaps she has withdrawn.

These are the rankings of the last players on that list. Harriet was in, she was showing on the IW website as a q entry, even yesterday she was still on the list, though she is clearly now not going. Yes it would be good to understand more of quite what her tournament plan is over the next couple of months. The Fed Cup is in April... she needs tournament play before then, but is missing the next month's worth of bigger tournaments (as well as not showing on the entry lists of the smaller ones as you note)!!!

120 Doi, Misaki (JPN)
122 Hibino, Nao (JPN)
123 Errani, Sara (ITA)
125 Kozlova, Kateryna (UKR)
126 Wickmayer, Yanina (BEL)
128 Rus, Arantxa (NED)
129 Bouzkova, Marie (CZE)
131 Dolehide, Caroline (USA)
133 Bonaventure, Ysaline (BEL)

Harriet was ranked 121, between Doi and Hibino, at the Q entry deadline.

There's a France 60K at the end of the month she could go for, perhaps?

Thanks for that, yeah, realised after I posted the above link at the top was the official site where Harriet was included. With it just having half the entrants, I thought it may have not been official from one of those Italian entry site lists or something. 

Has anyone seen anything for Miami yet? Her ranking will surely be high enough for that, so maybe she wants more of a training camp or something before making the shorter trip of the 2, but whatever she chooses, it will just be good to see her back on the court again.
