I'm probably one of the few pleased about that. She could've easily ended up in playing Heather or Harriet in qualifying and I'm sure no one would want that.

Crispy · Intermediate Club Player

Probably a relief for the organisers too; they have another wildcard to give out, and can now go to an aussie

I think that it would have been better for her to go though qualifying.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Maybe just me, then, but I'm pleased she's in the main draw

(I know there's a good chance she'll lost in R1 but still.......)

Agree CD. You never know, Emmas due a good draw, she has had some poor ones over the past few years.

indiana · Tennis legend

For me definitely better Emma being in the main draw.

She has indicated this week that she could certainly win a main draw round or two. All being well, she will steadily build match play, stamina and form over the coming months but really didn't need a qualifying diversion and extra matches / potential for a slip up in the AO.

Var · Club Coach

Emma playing in KOOYONG CLASSIC! just confirmed on their X feed

seagull · Hall of fame

Jack 1 away from main draw in Adelaide

There have been a few late withdrawals from Loughborough including Ryan Storrie and Oscar Weightman.

Kyle Edmund looks certain to get in directly and Jake will get an SE if he wins tomorrow.
Wildcards likely to go to Henry Searle, Ali Gray, Jake Fearnley and Harry W.

17 women in Loughborough qualifying - looks like Eliz and Freya have been promoted to the main draw with wild cards.

Surprised Ranah and Ella had to go through qualifying
