Girls: J500 Fort Lauderdale, USA, clay (Week 50)


The Orange Bowl is the final J500 event of the year.  Allegra Korpanec Davies and Hollie Smart should be in the main draw, out tonight.  Ophelia Korpanec Davies and Athina Schlepphorst lost in qualifying.

There is also an under 16 event, and Clarice Ouvarova is seeded in that.  Most of the entry is American, but the top seed is a 14 year old Ukrainian ranked inside the junior top 100

U16 R1 (L64)

(15) Clarice Ouvarova v Daniella Sales (USA)

Both Allegra and Hollie have potentially tricky openers - Allegra's opponent was a finalist in her last J300 event.

U18 R1 (L64)

Carrie-Anne Hoo (USA) v (15) Allegra Korpanec Davies
Hollie Smart v Janae Preston (USA)

Carrie-Anne did well to make that J300 final, although her opponents were not the best and she hasn't done anything at all in adults

If Hollie gets past Janae, she has a very good chance against Jauffret (whom I don't really rate - and was one of those who Carrie-Anne beat) and the Canadian seed, Lagaev, who has a truly irritating sort of game.
But Janae made two SFs in her first two adult events recently, and has been playing well in the last few months.

From what I can tell Hollie should be on court soon if not already

She's on court and, unfortunately, and rather as feared above, getting beaten up by Janae

0-5 down

I've only seen a few balls but Janae is playing well

And not a great match from Hollie, although Janae was always going to be a bigger challenge than many of the girls in Hollie's later rounds (if she got there) - she lost 1-6 4-6

In the girls doubles, Hollie + managed a win 10-8 MTB, but 6th seeded Allegra + lost their opening doubles 7-6 6-0.

Singles today, presumably, for Allegra?

Allegra has just lost in the singles

But it was a decent match (although Barros always gives quite a lot of points, you rarely see her smash the score)

6-4 6-4

And Allegra had to have some sort of MTO in the second set
