US Open qualies

Does anyone know where to find the entry list for this ?

Anne, Melanie and Sarah will have made the cut but I'm interested to see if Katie O'Brien has a chance of making it.

Melanie, Sarah and Katie will be making their US Open qualies debuts this week.

Anne has played once before in New York, she made the final round of the qualies in 2003, losing in the final round to the experienced Canadian Maureen Drake 7-5, 6-1. She missed 2004 and 2005 due to injury

Stephanie Cohen Aloro vs Sarah Borwell.


Kyra Nagy (18) vs Melanie South.


Youlia Fedossova vs Anne Keathavong (30).


Ashley Weinhold vs Katie O Brien.


 


Other news - Borwell and South in same quarter so only one could possibly qualify.


Annes quarter is quite positive. Biggest threat in my opinion is Angela Haynes.


Katie has a winnable round 1 against Weinhold.

Stephanie Cohen Aloro ranked 143 (has been as high as 61 after US Open 2003), aged 23. This doesn't look good. BUT shes lost her last three first rounds in challengers, so its possible for in form Sarah Borwell.


Kyra Nagy is 28 from Hungary. She is ranked 124 with her highest 122 last month so in form of her life I suppose. Won Rome challenger in July beating Ruutel and Cornet but lost first round next tournament and hasn't played for 3 weeks.


Youlia Fedossova is 18 from France. Ranked 263 with high of 251. Been losing a lot recently. Lost to Juilie Bone in Felixstowe. Anne should win this.


Ashley Weinhold is an American wildcard, ranked 571. Shes 17 and won a 10K in Texas in early July. Shes ranked 75 in juniors. Katie has a very good chance of reaching round 2 here.

Not necessarily. Woerle has just been broken back so who knows how long it could take for the match to end.

Rao won the 2nd set and is 4-2 up in the third so surely won`t be too long now.

Anne must be warming up now, match is yet to appear on the scoreboard.

She's definately got the best chance of qualifying of all the Brits. I can't see her rd1
opponent causing her too many problems, Anne always tends to raise her game for GS qualies with the exception of the Aussie Open.

As Johnny said, Fedossova has been struggling recently. I reckon Anne will win comfortably in 2. The other seed in Anne's section is the 8th seed Lilia Osterloh, but Anne beat her at Surbiton this year.

Osterloh's in a very close rd1 match at the moment with Angela Haynes it's 1 set all

They're on court and Fedossova has broken in the opening game

Osterloh is a double break down in the 3rd set to Haynes

A very shaky start for Anne, she's 2-0 and 15-30 down. C'mon Anne, if Julia Bone can beat her, so can you
