So we've got the U14s are out in force again. But I'm pleased that Ruby has a slightly more playable match than last week. And Brooke does too. And Paulina plays a decent-ish game and also has one of the better draws.
Not saying I see any of them actually winning but all's possible - and good luck to the other juniors too - Jaqui, Given and Fran.
So, there's been no big upsets but - looking on the bright side, and partly thanks to the better draws mentioned above - our rank outsiders have definitely posted better results than last week:
Paulina lost 2 & 4
Amy Leather won a set but lost in the MTB
Given lost 6-1 7-6(6)
Fran lost 2 & 3
Abigail lost 3 & 3
Jaqui O lost 0 & 4
BUT....... our Ruby is into a MTB - so allez !

Ruby plays really well for 14! Serve forehand and backhand all good shots, she'll be a pro one day. Fights but gets a bit down on herself. Her parents left at 2-3 second set and then she won 6-4.
Katie Dyson has a nice backhand slice, can mix it up with a short angle or drop shot but lacks a forehand to finish off the point.
Given Roach is coached by Joss Rae.
Jesus Andre Lukosiute is tall and strong. Takes a bloody age to serve it, speed of play painful.
