They were showing for me over an hour ago on that site, so not sure what happened for you there smile

Omae wasn't a seed in Qs and the 4th seed she faced in Q1 retired early, so should be a decent draw for Heather.

Wasn't showing for me until about 15 minutes after you posted, even though I kept refreshing it. Let's hope Naomi can get another win, she really needs the points

I assume you just mean on there and then checking back on 'Drawsheet' > 'Main Draw'?

Mind, sometimes RedSquirrel gets their info before I've seen it, which is why I thought RS might have been in the know the other day.

 Yes exactly. I'm in Bangladesh at the moment, not that I think that makes any difference, since the a also wasn't seeing it as quickly as you were! confuse

Great to see Naomi back and winning. She was so low in confidence and two wins and little brother in form, this could kick start her season.

It's actually the first time she's managed to put together back to back wins since the Japan trip this time last year. I'm not getting my hopes up just yet because she was 1/200 in one of the matches which would basically be the equivalent of beating one of those making up the numbers in our home Q draws, but that Sema win looks decent and it is great to see her picking up points again. Han will be a good gauge to see if a corner has been turned.

Another win for Naomi, although not as comfortable as might have been expected.

L16: Naomi BROADY (GBR) / Luksika KUMKHUM (THA) [2] 220 (124+96) def Shuyue MA (CHN) / Xiaodi YOU (CHN) 683 (510+173) 6-3 7-6(3)

Wins breed confidence and it was obvious a Bolton, she has no confidence at all.
Hopefully she will find some rhythm on her serve and consistency on her groundshots

Oh heavens what a really unsuccessful day for us here today! cry  Yes, Naomi's is a positive performance at least against someone in the top 200... but that's where she was until a few weeks ago, and still shows the struggle she will have to reverse her current downward trend. 

Disappointed for Tara and Emina who lost, but they got killed in a 2nd set TB and did not recover, losing 7-5 6-7(0) 5-10
