Boys R1 (L48)

(5) Oliver Bonding bye

Girls R1 (L48)

(4) Mingge Xu bye

Hannah Klugman v Antonia Vergara Rivera (CHI)

 Thank you for the post David - looks like a great tournament, didnt realise so many greats had won here as Juniors, Federer, Barty etc. Good to see Mimi back. I follow Mimi and Ranah on Instagram and they were both at Little Aston Tennis club on the clay for some practice beforehand. Hope all the Brits have a great week!

Was just looking at the fact sheet page for French Open. I see qualifying starts on 1st June. So I wonder if Hannah has a WC to the main draw considering she is playing here this week.

No. All the WCs are French except the WC reserved for a South American.

 Cheers, I guess this makes sense. If she is still playing here on Thursday then that will be the QFs and 100 ranking points. Whereas she would need to win 2 qualifying rounds and a first round win to get 90 points at French Juniors.

 Hannah hasn't entered the doubles (Ranah & Mimi are top seeds) which seems a sensible compromise. There are 2 Special Exempts available for RG for those still playing here on Thursday, and there are a lot of girls in RG qualifying who are playing here, so every chance that they will be allocated to 2 players still in singles. Hannah doesn't want to miss out because of playing doubles here, but singles would be different, and there is a good chance that she will be one of the two highest ranked eligible for a SE anyway (there are about 8 girls who would have a stronger claim, based on ranking, should they also make the QF here).  If not a J300 QF or better would be good compensation as you say.

Mimi's woes continue. She is 0-5 in the first set of her match against the Israeli.

She lacks match practice of course but she does not have much time before the French Open.
