Great to see Kirsty and Lucy qualifying

Interesting match between Berry and Warburton, I think that Berry might just nick that one in 3

lucy fletcher allways gets WC or a qualifier luck loser had portugese unranked wildcard last week and killed her.
i think warburton can do it but i would imagine berry with her experience will come through

I'm surprised that Mel lost to Lucy W, hopefully this is a sign that Lucy has found some consistency.

tennisbrain · Club Coach

it doesnt surprise me. lucy took number 1 seed to three sets taking her set 62 she has finally found her confidence i think after a number of losses.
unfortunately she now faces melania gloria who has been out with injury but was at a high of 250wr
