Week 15 - ITF (W25) - Obidos, Portugal - Carpet
Permalink  

Only EWS in qualifying this week - and she has just one match to get through and to earn at least one point. That means both Eden and Beth have made the MD. Unfortunately she plays a useful junior player, and she doesn't fare so well these days against such players

QR1: Emily WEBLEY-SMITH (GBR) [q3] 517 vs BYE

FQR: Emily WEBLEY-SMITH (GBR) [q3] 517 vs Ekaterina SHALIMOVA (RUS) [q9]  760 (CH:754 Dec 18) 18yrs (JCH:136 June 17)

Play already put back until NB 4:00 pm instead of 12 - so the weather still causing delays

And today's matches now showing on tomorrow's order of play, so another day lost.

So no play today at Obidos, but MD is now showing too. Eden and Beth will both play qualifiers, so could have to wait a while.

R32: Katy DUNNE (GBR) [6] 308 vs Anastasiya SHOSHYNA (UKR) [IR] 583/8 (CH:465)
R32: Eden SILVA (GBR) 464 vs QUALIFER
R32: Sarah Beth GREY (GBR) 450 vs QUALIFIER

In the doubles, Eden is taking a rest this week, so Beth is now playing with Katy D and they are the top seeds.
EWS and Sofia Shapatava, beaten finalists last week, are 3rd seeds again, and unfortunately also in the top half of the draw.

And interestingly (although not great from SBGs POV), if both Eden and SBG got past their qualifiers, they'd be playing Bucsa and Galfi respectively again.

Eden won't be as she has withdrawn. Must have been yesterday, as I think she's been replaced by Spiteri who I think was top seed in qualifying.

Katy started off in complete control, winning the 1st set 6-1, but lost 4 games in a row from 2-2 in the 2nd to get taken to a decider, in which she got broken, broke back, then got broken again, Serving at *3-5, she is now facing her 4th match point.

Spiteri was two above Em in the acceptance list, so I think you are right. Eden must have withdrawn after both draws had been made. I see the #7 seed was in the #1 spot in the Q draw.

Not really sure what is happening with Katy - she doesn't seem to have any consistency at the moment, and really shouldn't have lost that one.
