Heather obviously cant get here as shes still in Calvi. Could she get an SE to the main draw?

If she hasn't withdrawn she will already be in the main draw. There have been lots of withdrawals here.

Last I saw Heather had her name down for the W60 in Prague and the WTA125 in Spain.

Most recent acceptance lists, which have obviously moved quite a bit since these were published.

Heather has withdrawn it seems.

R1: SWAN, Katie (GBR) 150 (CH=118 2022) v Qualifier
R1: BURRAGE, Jodie (GBR) 110 (CH=108 2023) v Qualifier

SuperT · Futures level

Decent first round draws hopefully as the qualifying draw isn't very strong, but Katie gets top seed Sloane Stevens if she makes round 2, and Jodie the number 2 seed, so not ideal.

Em lost 6-1 6-2. Had points to win 6 of the 8 games in the second so not quite as one sided as the scoreline suggests. Not that it really matters anyway.

indiana · Tennis legend

Weak ( eg. Freya being Q5 ) and overall undersubscribed qualifying draw. Only 11 of the 16 spaces filled.

Though I guess this and the ATP Challenger 175 were always going to very unpredictable as to the final fields.

PaulM · Tennis legend

Great opportunity for Freya and Ali to make the semis here and keep nudging towards top 100.
