Lily Miyazaki


Yes. I confess I haven't heard of her before either.  But it is being reported that the Tokyo born player currently ranked 206 has switched allegiance and will now play as a British player.

Edit

I really should check the other threads first.  It appears I am about 12 hours late on this news.

It's good to give her a thread

And I believe in putting good news out in stereo !

I've seen Lily play quite a lot of times.

And if she's now changed to the UK, that's great and a big WELCOME to her

(And if she hasn't, maybe she'd like to get a move on and do so )

Lily's qualification for the main draw at Flushing Meadows earlier this evening acknowledged by the Beeb.  Sounds as though she may have a glimmer of a chance in the first round.

Lily (WR 148), a wild card entrant, a first round winner over Tamara Korpatsch (GER/WR 73) by 2 & 1 at Wimbledon today!  ban-woohoo.gif  She's unlikely to go any further, as her opponent in the last 64 is the 14th seed, Daria Kasatkina.

Lily has cut her season short as she has a stress fracture and has her left foot in a boot.

Bummer, just as I felt she was gathering some sort of momentum. Oh well, best of luck with the recovery and next season.
