Into the second round......

L16:- Mingge Xu (GBR) WR410 v Katarzyna Kawa (POL) WR142
L16:- Heather Watson (GBR) WR132 v Jessica Ponchet (FRA) WR140

L16:- Jodie Burrage (GBR) WR165 v Linda Fruhvirtova (CZE) WR152


 All 4 seeds left are in the lower half. Maybe Mimi or Heather can take advantage. And Jodie can take care of the seeds in the bottom half. 


 Actually all three girls are in the top half.


 Sorry, yes - I read the gap above as a draw gap between top and bottom for some reason.

 Got you. No gap means the winners meet in the next round, a gap means that they don't biggrin. Not the best of draws in that respect this week.

I was pretty sure you knew, but thought I'd say for the benefit of others (less regulars?) who might not realise.

Heather has an interesting match against Ponchet - the French girl was RU at Ilkley last season. If I recall, she was overpowered by Marino in that final but had a decent game for grass with quite flat strokes.

 Yes - now we can have new members, there may be a need for a whole lot of explaining!

Mimi was down a set and 5-3. She has now taken it back to 1 set all - very impressive!
