Thanks, the addict.

And great to see Daniela win it. She's one of the one's I'm really watching (although I've never seen her play).

And given she's 2007, and beat Amelie (2006) very easily (who plays a decent game), that's very promising. (Don't know Heidi but I think she's very young too)

The Tier Two at Corby this week has some interesting players.

Really unfortunately (IMO), Hannah Klugman (wc) - born 2009 - has been drawn against Amalia Widdowson (wc) - born 2008.

A group of girls are down from Glasgow, i.e. Chloe Elliott, Lucy Webber..... And Tabitha Holmes who'd I'd expected to see in the doubles up at Glasgow, given her success in the previous 25ks

Alessia Popescu is on the list for Wednesday but is also playing at Liverpool tomorrow so that seems unlikely unless she loses and then makes a dash .... Same for Lucia Cassidy

In the qualis, we've got plenty from Liverpool, such as Georgiana Mititelu, and Isabella Wong (both real tiddlers) ...

Similar with the men, in the MD, where we've got Glasgow players Miles Groom, Mike Shaw, Kyle Rae, Joe N-Billington etc

 Huge shame to see the 2 young wildcards together first round although would be interesting so see, would have preferred late on the draw which would be quite possible considering the entry list.  Hannah k would be the strong favourite to win the whole event.  the womens events seem to be getting weaker each time which is disappointing as only a couple of higher level players in each draw. The mens draw looks like some good match ups . Seems the stronger females are focusing on itfs leaving the Brit  tours for the younger players.

I don't quite understand what goes on with British Tour entries.

The women's draw comes out.

Then there are 7 LL spots (seven!)

AND then another one opens up but there's no one else around so now there's a BYE

Not much different in the men's

Do all these players who drop out lose their inscription fees?

Now, I guess that Glasgow and Liverpool might have affected a few.

But I hope they lose their fees because it's really messing the event round.

There is a window to withdraw and charged £1 or something handling fee. If you withdraw after that then lose thee entry fee ~£25.

Thanks, EP

In the fight off between the real youngsters, Hannah K came out on top but needed 3 sets to beat Amalia W

Hannah plays a Czech player tomorrow - who conveniently (or confusingly, depending how broad picture your geography is) is called Leontina Slovak

Giulia Lesa v Chloe Elliott looks a potentially interesting match tomorrow.

Lucy Webber lost.

I believe under LTA competition regulations they get withdrawal penalty points

Conduct Withdrawal - Points
Withdrawal in the period between the Withdrawal deadline and up to 2:00pm on the day before the start of the event - 2
Withdrawal in the period between 2:00pm on the day before the start of the competition and the end of the event - 3
Failing to appear at the competition for a match without having Withdrawn - 5

The first occurrence is recorded but not counted.

Subject to paragraph 11 of this Appendix
Eight, when a Player accumulates ten
Withdrawal Points within any rolling
12-month period:
(a) where the Player has not challenged the
imposition of any of those Withdrawal
Points pursuant to paragraph 5 of this
Appendix Eight, the Player will receive an
automatic suspension of:
(i) two weeks, for a first application of this
paragraph; or
(ii) three weeks, for the second application
of this paragraph in relation to the same
12-month period;
(iii) four weeks, for the third application of
this paragraph in relation to the same
12-month period; and
(iv) five weeks, for subsequent applications
of this paragraph in relation to the same
12-month period.

After Hannah Klugman's three set win over Amalia, she sailed through the next two rounds.

And then won today against Giulia Lesa who is another very decent youngster, 6-2 6-4

In the final, Hannah plays Darya Osadova, who I've never heard of.


In the men's final, Billy Blaydes plays Mike Shaw
