It is quite blustery which doesn't make it easy.

First set of results

Indianna Spink [6] def Lauren Bishop 6-7(3) 6-1 12-10
Michelle Dzjachangirova def Rhona Cook 6-4 6-0
Esther Adeshina [3] def Arabella Moen 6-2 6-2
Emma Wilson def India Rojano 6-0 6-1

OK, beaten to it by a few seconds. Only saw the last three games, too late to make any judgements on Hannah or Chloe. Last time I saw Chloe pay it was partnering Lucy Brown in County Cup.

 Yeah sorry, I've seen Miyazaki obviously over recent weeks, dont recall Andre... though. 

 

Recent events have been an eye opener to me. Beyond the top 200 or so ranked players, on the womens side, so top half dozen or so Brits, I have had my eyes closed,  seen so many new names. Being frank, although I've enjoyed some of it, there has also been some desperate tennis as well! But some has also been ok! 

 

A lot of names I'd heard of or seen in results but never seen hit a call in anger, most of my watching is mens and challenger level or full tour generally.
