To be fair she was quite high up on the alts list. I'm pretty sure all the Brits above her are already in the draw. There are also 5 WC's, isn't that more than usual.


 I wonder though if any of her ranking points giving her that place on Alts list are in fact due to previous wildcards? If I'm not mistaken sometimes MD WC in some level events get a point or more even if they lose?

Could be a bit more imaginative in wc choice I think. Who knows what goes on behind the scenes, but could well be the thought that if both your parents were pro players then you may well have more chance than others.

 Yes, it's a good point and what a lot of others will be saying - it becomes circular 

It's not a question of what's allowed (that's almost certainly correct) but what is justified or 'fair' - which is not a black and white question obviously but has to be addressed

 Brooke has a WTN of 15.6. Ellie Blackford's is 14.7. Alicia Dudeney's is 10.6. Brooke also received a wild card to the Pre-Qualifying for Wimbledon.

Excellent list, Lambda

This is nothing personal to Brooke but it does seem rather questionable re the LTA

(She also had wildcards into Roehampton and Junior Wimbledon, although those are more understandable)

I've seen her play live three (possibly four) times this year

And she's very fit, and well drilled, and has good qualities. But it's not a standout exciting profile, that's for sure.

I was hoping for a possible 2-3 wins today

Lauryn and Dani seemed the most obvious choices

And they're still to come...

Was hoping maybe a third 'surprise' win would happen too - after all, it's not adding much home advantage if simply the better ranked players win (like Lauryn and Dani)

But it's looking a little slim pickings on that front

Isa Lacy, Abi Amos and Eliz have lost

Grace has lost the first set 1-6

Sophie Bekker has put up a good fight but lost the first set in a TB and is down in the second

And Hep is a break down in the first

Yes, four straight-set losses out of four now and as CD says, Lauryn and Dani look the only possible chance of a win as Sophie loses and Hep goes down a a double break.

And we only got those two wins by the skin of our teeth ....

Although the MP for Lauryn was brilliant - talk about no one quite knowing where the ball was....

And she was well down for most of that MTB

But, hey, two wins ...
