Week 45 - ITF W25 - Solarino, Italy Carpet

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Emilie has lost the first set 3-6

Emilie, to me, is our new Mandy Carreras.

Foreign-based, clay courter, a rare sight on these shores

She fights quite well and the rallies looks pretty close so all the best to her in the second set

Lambda · Challenger level

Errr... Clay courter? She's only played 1 match on clay this year and 28 of 270 in her pro career.

I know - that's why she hasn't been doing so well until now

She's a closet clay-courter who's just realised (the sand-filled carpet they're playing on this week is just an artifical clay court so, for me, it's the same)

And theres also more chance of my buying a doubles season ticket than her reaching 240 in the world like Amanda.

I get you your point though CD. Maybe a bit like Matilda as well who seems to travel and stay foreign based.
