You thought Group A was tough? There's 4 here who deserve to go through and only 3 places guaranteed.

I went for Annabel Croft, have always liked her, but in retrospect think Anne Hobbs would have been my choice. Hopefully she will get through without my help!

 That was my dilemma and I voted for Anne so we've evened out

That was very hard - lots of my favourite players in the same group.

It's certainly getting tougher and tougher to pick just one - and it's only round 2!

And the voting is really spreading more too now - 8 of the 9 women here have votes, so especially the 3rd position could be very close!

A big spread of votes here with all bar one player picking up at least one.

Annie K probably looks safe but most of the rest still look in with a shout of surviving.

And claire colman who qualified, is possibly heading through.

According to Tennis Forum:

COLMAN, CLAIRE (Claire S. Colman)
Great Britian
Born 13 February 1952 Surrey Mid Eastern
[Active from 1970 to 1974]

Played singles in the main draw at Wimbledon in 1973 and 1974. From 1970 to 197w she lost in qualifying at the Championships.

Players into SF

1st Anne Keothavong 7

2nd Anne Hobbs, Annabel Croft and (Q) Claire Colman all 3.


Annie K joint top scorer.
Split votes here meaning Sam Smith is out. Perhaps Claire is emerging as a bit of a dark horse in this competition!

 Glad Anne Hobbs made it through, makes me feel less bad!
