well done to Sonay for taking advantage but this must be one of the weakest 500 events in history?!

Forgive me as not following too closely!

paulisi · Tennis legend

This is normally weak as players have a break after Aus

Sheddie · administrator

Sonay now back in the top 50. Beat Beljek and it's a new career high

Live 49 for now.

But just 2 players can knock Sonay back, Caty McNally by winning the Ostrava 250 title and Sara Bejlek by winning the title here - and Sonay plays Sara in the QF so she can sort that out tomorrow.

Great week. Keep it up.

Hopefully she can take advantage given she has quite a few points to defend at Indian Wells.

How did Zarazua get straight into R2 as a LL?
