Ciara Moore is in the alternates list and a number of players lower in the list are in the Q draw so she must be either a late withdrawal or she has a WC to the MD.
I think Ciara is a no-show. She was 7th on the alternates list and probably thought it wasn't worth the journey - long way to go if you're not sure to get in ! The main draw cut-off is now around WR500 and I can't see her getting a WC to that level unless there is some special arrangement.
Ciara has played four adult events so far this year, without any real success. Although only one was a W15 - she is a victim of the GB policy to not coming fund W15 so she has to keep targetting the higher events
Given the losses, though, maybe not a bad idea to play a junior event
Ciara's based at the Mouratoglou Academy (or at least was last year) so I would have thought that there not being W15 GB events was less of an issue for her with continental W15s being more accessible.

Interesting - then I wonder why she keeps popping up in the GB events, when she has so much more scope in continental Europe, if she's based in France?
Mind you, I've never seen her in the PM lists, or in the money tournaments there, which a lot of his kids play, or on his insta. Maybe she likes to be discrete? Or I've just missed her?

I'm only aware of her there because a few of PM's insta posts that have popped up on my random posts feed have used her for his tips. Maybe she's only there part time?
