Other events, 2023 - week 42


The two J100s in Botswana have, frankly, been extremely easy points.

Which the 2009-born Penickova twins have taken/are taking great advantage of.

Our players have had mixed results in R1 today

 

Grace Chinwike had to retire after losing the first set.

Tamara Kuti lost in three

Seeded 7, Alisha Ndukwu lost too

BUT Elizabeth Evans got an excellent, easy win over the 3rd seed, ranked 600 places higher than her

Also, in the boys, Max Carrier won too 

 

J60 Baku

Casey Mauro lost a desperately close R1 match against the 7th seed

 

J60 Denmark

Henry Best lost in R1

 

J30 Ivory Coast 

Darsh Patel lost in R1

 

J30 Réunion

Yahs Bahalkar is top seed and got a BYE through to R2 (he was in Madagascar last week, and Rwanda the week before......not clocking up eco-Brownie points.....)

Sairama Srihar****Allam lost in R1

 

J30 Saudi 

R1 wins for Issah Ali and Harry Redfern, and Zayna Ayub in the girls

 

J30 Turkey

ZainDaim-Pan (LL) lost in R1

Just for clarity the 2 tournaments where the Penickova twins have dominated are in Accra, Ghana. Elizabeth Evans posted a win today, so meets top seed Kristina P in the semis. Max Carrier lost his quarter-final

Thank you, David - you're SO diplomatic

As in, 'just for clarity' means 'when CD has written Botswana every time, please read Ghana' .....

.... .....

But, yes, an excellent win for Elizabeth Evans (age 15) today - it will be a big boost for her rankings

Although, as you say, Max lost, as did Grace & Tamara in their doubles final
