So after they both lost in singles will Babos & Zvonareva a) withdraw before their first match b) play a match then withdraw or c) complete the tournament?

 B, A then C

Suppposedly Zvonereva now lives in Dubai, or is based there? And coaches there for Topspin (although presumably not full time ). She's certainly listed on Topspin, and you can book a session.

So there's a good chance she'll stick around, I'd say. No idea about Babos.

 Still waiting for either the WTA or the official tournament website to publish the draw.

Emily App has started well :)

Serving well, which is essential for her

Saved some break points

And just managed to get the break, after a possibly rather lucky call for her

 Yep - absolutely lost her service suddenly - was getting all those firsts in - and then suddenly was missing them - and went for strong seconds - and missed a few of those too

Her serve is her anchor -it goes wrong and she's lost
