On the lovely pink courts - should see them, they are rather nice in fact!

So the men are playing outside and the women are playing inside?

 Its due to rain again tomorrow for much of the late morning and afternoon so the women may get the better deal on this, as it happens

It is a shame for sure. The grass is in super nick but from memory they only cover centre court, or so I understand. The indoor courts are quick at Ilkley though so if any of our girls have a big serve and decent flat ground shots, they may stand a chance of an upset?

I was thinking mainly of players like Allegra and Sally, who are there on the back on good form on grass and aren't our 'normal' players

And Hep who has quite a sneaky game on grass

And Naiktha

And Isa Lacy too, who's shown very good grass pedigree

I'm not sure a quick indoor court is the same for them

However, we've got other players who have obviously been playing on hard courts recently, but - presumably - so have their opponents

 Yeah good points - wondered whether they could have done grass today, its been sunny and breezy so far but showers seem to be coming in soon and I think therell be lots of disruption after around noon.
