Although this a Grade 2 most of the top boys have stayed on from last week's Grade A. That combined with a ranking drop mean that Harry Wendelken has a similar seeding. However the top ranked girls have gone, leaving Matilda Mutavdzic as top seed
A clean sweep today including a first success at this level for Will. Round 2 will be much tougher for him and Marni, who both face semifinalists from last week's Grade A. Lui has the opportunity to avenge last week's 3 set defeat by Chen Dong

Marni does progress, but another disappointing tournament for Matilda in singles at least. Next up for Marni is the JWR30, who won back to back Grade 2s a couple of months ago. A creditable effort from Harry, but not to be in the end.
