So after all our speculation it turns out that Hannah is playing qualifying rather than getting a MDWC. Personally I think this is a sensible decision as there are worthwhile points available at 100K level and the chance to win some matches, rather than risk drawing a top seed in the first round proper and losing early.
Are they likely to offer any more than two WCs for the MD? There are a few juniors in the acceptance list with reasonable junior rankings but none that really stands out. They might have thrown some of them in deep end of a W25 but a W100 would be a different ball game.
At present they have Harriet, Lily, Katie Sw, Anna Br and I assume Emily Ap in the MD.

This may well back up the other guy's argument that because of the limited number she has left, and she's in qualis as of right, that it'd be better to keep her remaining wildcard(s) for other events where the entry list is higher
Either way, it's great to see her back -hoping all injury issues are a thing of the past #fingerscrossed
Imogen H has so far successfully defended 14 break points against her excitable higher ranked opponent. There are lots of words and arm waving from the French girl but Imogen just keeps calmly plugging away.
