Jodie won 6-4 2-6 6-2 

Looks a good win that, considering their respective last 4/5 months or so. Well done Jodie.

Tig actually saved 2 successive MPs in that TB decider, and has needed 3 sets in all her matches thus far, so probably isn't firing on all cylinders, but can obviously operate at another level.

I'd consider this a successful week regardless now though, and with the mass withdrawals in WTA Hua Hin, she looks set to be one of the top 6 seeds in quals next week.

Can't download the drawsheet right now as I'm getting an error from the webpage, but it does look as if Beth is the lowest DA.

Edit

Now downloaded, and confirmed, Beth is last DA, plus one on-site alt

There'll be it's own thread in due course, but the Q draw for WTA Hua Hin is out, and I forgot, because Jodie is still involved in this W25, she has been removed from that. Whether that directly got SBG in, I'm not sure, but Beth is there, with Eden, and they have drawn the 11th and 12th Q seeds respectively, so on paper at least, it's their best opportunity to pick up some shock points, but it must be one of the weakest WTA Q draws I have seen for some time.

 Any chance Jodie could get a WC to main draw?

Na. They've already announced 3 WCs in Martic, Bouchard and a local. I'm not sure if either, or both, of Martic and Bouchard count as a 'top 20' WC. Martic did end last year in the top 20, so may apply, but I don't think Bouchard ticked any of the boxes in her 'glory days', so if not, then there'll be no room, but although they are in the same country, I don't think the organisers will see reaching a W25 semi final would warrant a MDWC into a full WTA event, as unfortunate as it was.

In terms of MDWCs - they get either 3 normal WCs, or if there is a top 20 WC, then they only get 2 normal WCs, with the option of a second top 20 WC if required - it's all a bit confusing, but I think the local and Bouchard will take the 'normal' WCs, so no room for another.
