Be surprised if Stuart Parker doesn't get a WC into Nottingham. Having a WC into the doubles for Nottingham week 1 probably points to a WC to the qualifying draw at least.
Just looking at the W100 entry list for Nottingham. 11 ranked Brits on the list (plus a load of lower players), but the highest entry is Fran at 9th Alt.
Made me smile to see Kate Merrick, at alt 87, with MDO against her name !
Almost half the original entry list for Birmingham has now withdrawn meaning Heather is now in main draw and Harriet moves into qualifying (though no doubt she'll end up with a MDWC)
