Wow!

Great result from Liv and Tereza! They really do seem to be a great pairing who bring out the best in each other.

Very competitive, but missed out on some key points. Still a great week though, but unable to avenge their loss in Korea from a couple of weeks ago.

QF:- Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR95 (47+48) v Hao-Ching Chan (TPE) / Veronika Kudermetova (***) CR40 (17+23) [7] (5)6-7 3-6

Liv now up to a new CH of 40 in live rankings, with 11 counters from WTA events and one from a 125. Lowest counter is now 98 and no counters to drop until February

That's back to back defeats by Chan and Kudermetova. They seem to have their number at the moment.

I think they could beat them next time - it was very close the whole way.

Pity but great the.consistent level they are showing against very good pairs.

Olivia is now showing as live ranked 40. I think Heather's CH 39 from 2019 may be the best British women's doubles ranking this century? Olivia now has no counters due to drop off until February ( her 12th / lowest counter will now be 98 points ).

Question for one of the rankings gurus here - with the schedules players like Heather have left, is anyone able to catch Liv as British year end number one? Or is she certain or likely to end up top from a British perspective . Asking for a friend.

Heather is 387 points behind, so could make up the difference with a good run in one or more tournaments. Liv and Tereza could equally add points, so the outcome isn't certain for a few weeks yet.

thanks TA- Are they both playing doubles in Wuhan and the other Chinese events like Ningbo?

Liv and Tereza are on the entry lists for the next two - Heather isn't but might yet get a partner.
