Eliz will next play a junior from Gabon, who quite remarkably is their country's only ranked female player of any kind.

QR1: MALONEY, Eliz (GBR) 10 UNR/986 beat AUGUSTINOVA, Natalie (CZE) UNR/1530 CH=UNR1528 16yo 6-4 6-0

FQR: MALONEY, Eliz (GBR) 10 UNR/986 vs Celestine AVOMO ELLA (GAB) [q2] UNR/725 Born 2000 (JCH:127 Sept 18)

Yes, congrats to Eliz for overcoming the Gabonese girl! That will get her a second WTA point come August, just one more counter she will need to get a ranking
MD is relatively kind too first up. Or so I thought till I looked at Dalakishvili's junior record...

R32: MALONEY, Eliz (GBR) [Q] UNR/986 vs Mariam DALAKISHVILI (GEO) UNR/413 (CH:1139) Born 2001 (JCH:39 April 18)

As before the men and women will need a MD win in 15Ks to get any ATP/WTA ranking points with no qualifying ranking points in 15Ks.

So well done to Eliz but for now she will still be on her 1 WTA point for reaching the L16 in Sharm late last year.

 Ah yes, I'd forgotten how it worked in the olden days
