The men's tournament has a lot or priority 1 entries, so I imagine quite a few of those will remain. The women's tournament has a lot of priority 5 and 6 entries, so there will be massive withdrawals by the deadlie, Tuesday 29th March.
oh, gosh, yes - if all the 4, 5 and 6 entries drop out, we are looking at maybe as low as Eden Silva getting in...certainly Tara
From the update to the feed up wild cards, the women's autumn schedule features a 25K, a 60K and a 100K. No information included on the men's autumn schedule.
For the women 1 MD WC and 1 Q WC in 3 of the summer W25s at the NTC, Nottingham and Foxhills is reserved for a UK/ US University player with a UTR of 10.5 or higher. I would be disappointed if those are the only WCs given to University players over the summer. To be honest, I'm not sure who the summer MD WCs are going to go to if most of them are not to US College players back for the summer
There doesn't appear to be anything similar for the men at University but, interestingly, there is a wild card available to 1 of the 5 summer M25s to the junior who gets the most ITF points in the 3 junior grass events (Nottingham, Roehampton and Wimbledon). There isn't a need to do this for the girls as all our top girls will maximise their pro WCs anyway.
Does anyone know, will the Surbiton entry lists be out this week?
I think entry deadline closes 21 days before the main draw starts so that is next Monday. So not this week.
Ah, ok. I saw the previous weeks events on Darts Rankings just earlier but couldnt recall when they had been posted...will wait for Surbiton with breathe baited
Re Surbiton. I can only afford the one day off work, I wanted to catch a full day of the first round, a mix of mens and womens. I can see the ladies main draw starts on Tuesday 31st May. Does anyone know when the mens starts? Is it the same day....I have it in my head a day later.....or is it earlier????
