Well it wasn't a strong entry list, with byes for the top three seeded pairs (who happen to be be British - it was close to being all 4 being seeded)

 oh, well, if you put it like that biggrin but i guess we will take it anyway!

 I meant for a W60. A CR of 512 isn't very high for the third seeds at this level - and they couldn't even fill the draw.

 Understood - I guess a bit of a gimme, but at least we have pairs taking advantage. And at least we arent the only country not filling draw sheets out!

Ali has won 3 W60 titles this season, two with Freya and 1 with Lily. Looking at 2022 and 2023 , her tournie wins seem to be Britain and France exclusively . Has she got a strong connection with France ?

 Not at all, IMO

The fact that both Freya and Ali are (separately) in finals this weekend shows - to me - that it was good to split and it's given a new boost to both
