I don't know if it's good or bad that Jodie is winning this without any challenge given she is set to face Britt Du Pree in the next round
It's good
If Jodie was having a challenge against 31 year-old Sinead, whose CH isn't very high, and even that was nearly TEN years ago, I think there would be an issue

I guess I was thinking as preparation for a better opponent than she's faced for some time but it's certainly pleasing to see Jodie striking the ball so cleanly and serving well too
Alicia taken to a decider by her opponent who is playing very well, way above her ranking would suggest even though she's only 20
Edit: Guessing injuries may have slowed Zhiyenbayeva's progress?

Sonja had a JCH of 15 in December 2024. Her CH is 630 from February 2025 and she's entered on her SR of 633. She missed a whole year from October 2024 to October 2025, so not sure where the SR comes from and can't be bothered to research it !

So definitely better than her ranking !
That explains why this has been such a good watch and why the standard from both players has been far beyond a normal W50 match, if Alicia comes through this she will definitely have earnt the win!
