Ok Anne's our British no 1 but based on performances over the past 12 months (which is what's supposed to decide the wcs), do you really think she should get one over Naomi ?

She's maintained her position at around 160ish in the rankings but has shown few signs that she's going to be able to step up a level and break top 100...she's been fairly consistent as ever in the 25Ks, making several finals but as soon as she's come up against top 120 opposition she's been invariably outplayed. Also, grass isn't her best surface, she's had numerous wildcards and hasn't won a match since 2004 (when she beat Nicole Pratt at Wimbledon...is that her only WTA grass win ?). I'd think that she'd be better to come through qualifying, get some wins there which would then give her a better chance in the main draw

In contrast, Naomi hammered someone in the top 65 last week...I also think Bally would have the edge over Anne on grass and so would have given her the 2nd wc...hopefully both of them can qualify now.

If Georgie had been fit I'd have given the two wcs to her and Naomi...unfortunately Georgie won't be playing a tournament for another 6 weeks and so misses Wimbledon
