Girls: Banana Bowl, Brazil, clay - Grade 1 (Week 8)
(Preview)
Holly Fischer was on the entry list here, and I think lost in Paraguay in time to sign in for qualifying, but wasn't in the draw (Mila Burek was and won one match). Hence Destinee Martins is the only Brit in the main draw. R1 (L48) Destinee Martins v Marina Figueiredo (BRA)
