UK Pro League 2022


Don't know who runs their website, but they need to concentrate on what they are doing. Freya v Katie is listed as both Pool A and Pool D, playing at the same time !
Pool A should be Eden v Lauryn

Good looking win for Eliz over Joanna today, 6-1 6-3 (both were already through).

I guess it may have been done with Bath in mind, i.e giving Eliz an 'easier' match on paper vs Abigail the day after her W25 final, but they don't seem to have grasped the 'winner stays on' format here to try to keep the groups as live as possible. In reality, when Eliz has made a W25 final, and Joanna has just beaten Abigail 6-0 6-0 last week in Bath, you're pretty much guaranteed to have those two advance from that particular group anyway, but it's still not great to have 2 of your 4 women's matches today feature two players who had already qualified, and just placings at stake. It happens so many times here, and it's so easy to avoid.

Billy Harris a big surprise group stage loser, failed to get through. Ryan losing a match also was a surprise and will throw the draw open in the last 8.

I've no idea, but as Freya is in QF3 and Katie in QF4 I would hope NOT as they were in the same pool (and the same applies to all the other pairings). Hopefully it will be Q1 v Q3 or Q4 etc.
The men's looks OK though as listed.

Anton and Ali won the opening mens QF matches, Sonay and (small upset?) Arina in the womens

Arina is WR615 (CH613 three weeks ago) after winning a W15 from qualifying and reaching the final the following week. That was on clay though, and she lost to Jasmine in the first round at Bath last week.

Does Arina actually have any links to the UK? Obviously Romanian nationality, but seems to be based in Germany at the moment?

I saw Eden had dropped the first set 5-7 and was quite surprised, especially after Arina lost to Jasmine last week, and only managed 3 games against Sonay, but I see Bet365 had this 1.66 (Eden) vs 2.10, so kind of like 8/11 vs 11/10 (pre match), so not a big surprise in that respect. For comparison, Arina was 4.10 (just over 3/1) to beat Sonay the other day, so it really does look like Sonay is distinguishing herself from the pack both in terms of actual results and perception. Her results have been fantastic for a long time now, and seemingly another comfortable win for her today.

Ryan has certainly not had an easy week, surprisingly really.

The commentator was saying it's Sonay vs Eliz, and Katie vs Arina in the SFs.

I saw bits and bobs today of the latter two QFs, one thing I was surprised about was Eliz's physique. I've probably not seen her in one of those non fixed stream cameras for a good while, but she was looking like she had been doing a lot of weights. Freya was *5-2 double break up in the first set, and I think 3-0 in the second, so she'll be disappointed not to have at least taken it into a MTB, but Eliz is obviously such a fighter.

 Ali Gray crushed Anton in their semi for the loss of 3 games and Aidan won the opening set 6-2 against Ryan.

Two tight womens matches as Arina and Sonay won MTB's to get to the final and a re-match, I believe
