I think the draw is pretty fair overall. Obviously not great for Bains. Sakkari should beat Watson, but grass over clay does favour Heather, and Sakkari did lose all her matches on grass last year (mind Hev pretty much lost all hers as well) - I'd say 60/40 Maria, but I would rather she faced 4th seed Sakkari than 5th seed Yastremska in this case personally.

Lapko has had a shocking 2019 and Jodie obviously pushed her extremely close the other day, so depending on how Harriet is feeling with her foot, that's winnable. Maia has a Q which you generally can't complain about (although there are a few grass specialists in the Q draw, if they ever get on) and Pera just sneaked in the draw with all the mass late withdrawals and last year was her first time on grass and she didn't do that well, so should still be favourite against Katie, but not beyond her.

I'd like to think we could get a couple of wins there.

Tara serving for the 1st set and just 2 points away, *5-4. She was an early break down as well.
