CD is correct, $887 for Q1 losers - points and prize money are on the pdf drawsheet available on the WTA site.

Slightly better, and a with similar amount for a losing first round doubles, it definitely makes it more worthwhile.

Wiki had it down as $600, a reduction from $750 from the year before, which I just put down to Covid, but another example of not to take that as gospel.

Lisicki now playing Martincova, wonder if she had a chat with Jodie about the match and then offered to team up for doubles thereby getting the WC.

This is the race for #1 doubles as I see it

Two wins needed to catch Naomi

Naomi WR142 611 points Lowest counter 25 points Orlando W25 50 for a win, 30 for the final (unikely in my view, given current form)
Emily WR163 532 points Lowest counter 28 points 60 for a win, 110 for the semi, so 564 or 614 points. Would have to beat the #2 seeds in the QF
Eden WR176 500 points Lowest counter 15 points 60 for a win, 110 for the semi, so 545 or 595 points - unlikely to get past the top seeds in the first round

Of course one win for Emily and perhaps a win at Limoges (57 points, nett 38) as well could do it. Mathematically possible still.

Lisicki takes the second set 6-1, so is finding her game now.

Can't post the link, but unfortunately Limoges has been cancelled this year due to the AO quarantine rule (it's on the WTA Limoges Twitter account).

 

I think the W100 Dubai event in early December is still going ahead and Eden seems to have some Dubai links, so maybe she'll end up there.

And gets a fellow qualifier in the main draw (Fett).

 

Zavatska retired at 0-6 0-4 in her FQR, but ended up getting the LL spot.

 I notice that one of Jodie and Sabine's opponents in the doubles is Yana Sizikova who was involved in match fixing allegations at the French Championships.

 The WTA tournament page still shows it as not cancelled, but I found the tweet, and the notice (in French)

https://twitter.com/OpenWTALimoges/status/1316771084767817730

So Emily will just have to win two rounds at Linz then !!

 

Dubai is 7th to 13th December and is a W100+H, so 28 points for one win, 55 for two. Eden would need several wins over the two tournaments.

 Don't know what Sabine's form is like in the doubles these days but apart from playing in a Wimbedon singles  final she also played in the  2011 doubles final with Sam Stosur. Unfortunately both proved to be one sided  defeats.

Sabine has only played two doubles matches since the US Open in 2017, losing them both.

Match before Jodie has finished, so she should be on soon.

They were already underway. Early stages.

Ouch. 6-5 30-30* and Lisicki has just taken a fall and is crying in agony. Didn't really see what happened, but doesn't look great.

Oh dear. What a shame. Do hope Lisicki is OK.

And feel sorry for Jodie too....they had a decent chance in that doubles....
