Boys & Girls: J300 Charleroi-Marcinelle, Belgium, clay (Week 22)


Its the week before Roland Garros, which as usual means the Astrid Bowl is the main junior focus.  Mark Ceban is in a tricky situation, as should he progress over the next 3 days he will only be eligible for a Special Exempt if players ahead of him on the RG qualifying list lose.  Allegra Korpanec Davies is in a clearer position, as she is only one out of the French Open, so if she reaches the semis as seeded, she would get a Special Exempt (she would also make it of course with one more withdrawal).

Live scores are available here  and there may be a live stream from court 1 via a link from the host website, though in previous years the quality of the stream has been mediocre.

Boys R1 (L32)

Kerem Yilmaz (TUR) v Mark Ceban

Mark lost the first set 6-4. In other matches Ida Wobker, who pushed Alice Gillan in Estepona last week, has beaten the top seed Vendula Valdmannova

Allegra was on the streamed court 1 and I caught the last few points as she battled back from a break down in the decider to break again as the Belgian double-faulted on matchpoint

The other seed in Allegra's quarter went out. Next up for her though is American Kori Montoya. Allegra+ are seeded 3 in doubles. Mark is playing with a Spaniard, who is also down for Roland Garros qualifying, so I imagine they will pull out if participation there is threatened.

Girls R2

Kori Montoya (USA) v (3) Allegra Korpanec Davies

The situation is clear for Mark, as he lost his round 1 doubles today, so will be en route to Paris for qualifying. If Allegra wins tomorrow she will get a Special Exempt, assuming no-one else has withdrawn to let her in by right. The complication is that there are still a couple of other players in the quarter-finals who are eligible for Special Exempts, so she may need to avoid the scenario of losing in singles but still being in the doubles (they are scheduled to play their round 1 this evening)

Girls QF

Kanon Sawashiro (JPN) v (3) Allegra Korpanec Davies

Allegra+ lost, removing the outside possibility of being stuck in Belgium with no opportunity to play in Paris
