I'll repeat my previous comment.
Nobody turns up for on site sign in.
The referee will ring down the list and offer then the QWC to ensure they turn up.
The likely scenario is that qualifying wild cards were given to the likes of Danielle, Abigail, Emma or others near the top of the alts list on Wednesday. At sign in they then got in directly so handed them back. They were then given to the next GB players to have signed in.
Not one MTB out of all 16 Q1 matches. All 14 big outsiders out, although a good effort from Lara B, and I guess others would have their moments, like Sarah being 4-0 up on Jasmine in the second set, before losing the next 5 games.
The two Brits (who weren't huge faves) most likely to have some joy both came through in Emma and Danielle, and a particularly good win for the latter, as Sewing seemed to have had a reasonable start to her season, so better than expected overall.
