Doubles

Looks a strong draw, with nearly half of the top 20 doubles players involved. Not certain about Liv and Tereza's opponents though - both seemingly retired and in their 40's - and look like lucky on-site sign ins.

And yes, Serena is in the draw with Mboko, but faces the #3 seeds Routliffe and Melichar-Martinez.


L16:- Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR58 (29+29) v Darija Hurak Schreiber (CRO) / Alicja Rosolska (POL) UNR (971/CH=9+UNR/CH=23)

L16:- Katie Boulter (GBR) / Emma Raducanu (GBR) CR484 (225+259) [WC] v Storm Hunter (AUS) / Shuai Zhang (CHN) CR30 (19+8 [27]

 

Edit:- Rankings updated to 08/06/26

Jodie lost her first set pretty quickly (not making any blink-of-an-eye comments......)

1-6

Jodie out in 2 sets. Better in the 2nd set but a long way off any sort of good level

Jodie lost 1 and 3. Very little quality from her today, which is a shame, but it's early days.

Another example of the daft LTA policy as regards events

Jodie is making her comeback and has to play a player ranked WR 103 - which is pretty much the best she could hope for if she was on absolute top form and had never been injured

A nice W75 - W100 event, with players in the 200s, would have been perfect

Jodie should have played Ilkley. But there aren't enough WC's to go round, so another tournament would be better. Bring back Surbiton.

Nasty fall for Hannah who was running at full speed, got the ball (and hit a winner) but couldn't brake and hell quite heavily on her side

She's up now though and, cross fingers, seems OK

Hannah lost 6-4 in the third

A lot of good stuff

SO much better than some of her previous efforts

But that doesn't completely cut it
