Week 10 – ITF W15 Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt - Hard


A few extra byes in this 48 draw.

QR1:- Mirabelle Njoze (GBR) UNR/CH599 v Emma Peretti (ITA) UNR/2018/18yo

Katy Dunne is on the main draw acceptance list, and Ruby Cooling should also have crept into the main draw - but I think there have been at least three drop-outs from the currently-showing acceptance list.

I'd expect a lot more drop outs.
Travel to the middle east isnt straight forward

 There have been around 40 withdrawals from players with WTA/ITF rankings dince the withdrawal deadline - plus a greater number of players with no ranking. Looking at flight paths on flightradar.com it looks as though flights to Sharm are hardly affected.

 Pity re Ruby. 13 DFs, the last on MP, will hardly have helped. Pity, I've been looking for her to progress more after some of her domestic performances.

 Lana Virc has a JCH of 60. Any player with a JCH inside the top 100 is usually competitive in W15. I always viewed the JCH as the best measure of a player's ability as they transition from junior to senior.

 Yes, it was only a few weeks ago as well. Katy said she was tricky to play against.

 ... though players take so many different paths. I guess yes if top 100 juniors they should at least be pretty decent, but non top 100 juniors might be very decent.

 There are three Junior Reserved in the draw - and they all won today (Virc was a qualifier)
