A shame but some more valuable points which will push her up closer to 250. I wonder whether she can make the Aussie Open qualies cut by the end of the year. If she gets her ranking to around 230, that should do it.

I agree Vik, I think that in her British tennis magazine interview which she did earlier this year, she said that a year away from the game meant that she'd rediscovered her hunger for tennis. She also said that before, she'd always been chopping and changing her game, trying to alter things. Now she said that she doesn't do that anymore, she accepts what her strengths and weaknesses are and tries to concentrate on playing to her strengths.
