Sorry, just wondering if anyone had an OOP for today at this event?

The link that worked yesterday still has the draws etc but no OOP is showing!

competitions.lta.org.uk/tournament/08548C1C-A746-41D3-AECB-9FB4886C7467/matches

Presumably they kicked off play at 11 with the 4 womens QF's, then mens, then womens semis and mens semis in that sequence? But that is a pure guess!!

Usual LTA stuff - no updates today !

I would think your OOP is most likely. They used four courts yesterday, so all QF should be played at the same time.

[1] Anna Brogan d. Hephzibah Oluwadare 6-1 6-0
[4] Emily Appleton d. Alicia Dudeney 3-6 6-1 6-3

Ella Mcdonald d. Sofia Johnson 6-4 6-2

Anna is very strong form it seems.

With those results now even stronger likelihood of Anna and Alicia progressing as predicted id say.

In the past they've ended up giving out more than 2 from the play-offs, but better to secure your place on the day. Difficult to see past Anna and Lissey really.

 Indeed. They are both being very efficient.

 Yes, if Anna and Lissey win, I wouldn't be surprised to see Ella get a wildcard - not sure about Emily App - and we've had precedent for giving it to one semi-finalist and not the other

Although Ella did get double bagelled by Zacarias last week, and that would be one of the best draws you could get at Roehampton.

 Absolutely - I'm not sure I'd give her a wildcard (in fact, I think I wouldn't)

But I think it's quite likely that the AELTC give her one

Well deserved - no opponent came close to her.

Yup well done. The top seed in this usually tends to be a bit of a cut above as they are often borderline for having got a wildcard anyway, although tend to be a bit higher ranked than Anna is just now. I remember players like Naomi, Tara and EWS breezing through fields in days of yore!

The money will be a huge help to her.
