Doubles draw out first, and at least this week the Pitak sisters will only potentially have to play the top seeds in the Qf not the first round (having played the 2nd seeds first up last time). Emilie is playing with Laetitia PULCHARTOVA (CZE) again and they also have an unseeded pair first round. Tif...

Here both Maia and Eden are in qualifying and Katy D should be in the MD. This field does not look like there have been late withdrawals, as Maia was 4th in the q list, but is now only q2, which suggests the only two moved up from the qual list above her are filling the two unused SE places in the MD. Eden does ha...

Only Tara is in the q draw, which means Naomi is in the MD or has left. Of note is that Tara was last on the q list but is now the q12th seed, so a lot of players on the q list have not signed in. Her opponent was only 23rd on the alt list, but nevertheless as a promising junior is likely to provide Tara with a tough m...
