Week 38 - ITF W100 Caldas da Rainha, Portugal - Hard

Crispy · Strong Club Player

I think its smart for Jodie to use her actual ranking to get into these high ITFs. It was always going to take her a while to find her rhythm; the real opportunity is when she can use her SR and the beginning of 2025 when its a clean slate for everyone. Good luck.

Just wondering however if it may be worth going in a lower ITF so she can get some wins and matches

SuperT · Futures qualifying

Shes currently scheduled to play a W35 in Spain at the end of the month. I only know this thanks to Seagulls entry lists.

Em and Conny saved 2 match points at 3-5* and 2 more at *4-5 in th seconds, got out to a *7-3 lead in the MTB, but lost the last 7 points. Gutting after a phenomenal fight.

Hmm, the QF doubles draw has disappeared and I know I posted it. Oh well...

Petra Martic retired after just 4 points of her QF match.

SF:- Jodie Anna Burrage (GBR) / Anastasia Tikhonova (***) CR309 (186+123) def Vitalia Diatchenko (***) / Anastasia Zakharova (***) CR983 (651+332) 4-6 7-6(5) 10-8

They led the MTB 9-4 .....

At least Jodie is getting some court time, even if only doubles

It will all help get her timing back quicker.

Crispy · Strong Club Player

Totally agree; Jodie just needs to remember how to reign in her game, and trust her ankles again. Any time on the match court is going to give her that confidence - and winning is winning

F:- Jodie Anna Burrage (GBR) / Anastasia Tikhonova (***) CR309 (186+123) v Francisca Jorge (POR) / Matilde Jorge (POR) CR232 (107+125) [3]

Fransica has just lost her singles SF (3 sets, just over 2 hours) so the doubles final will start in an hour or so - say 4:30 at the earliest (OOP now says not before 4:00)

I can't get the stream to work today, neither on the ITF or other sites. Have to try a different device !
