Week 9 - WTA International ($220K) - Monterrey, Mexico, Hard


Heather Watson competes in qualifying here, starting today, and finds herself in a very strong section. She will be favourite to win her opener, though Panova is useful and beat Anne last year, but is then likely to run into the in-form big serving winner of Midland, Lucie Hradecka.

(2) Lucie Hradecka (CZE) v Anastasia Pivovarova (RUS)
Alexandra Panova (RUS) v Heather Watson (GBR)
Masa Zec Peskiric (SLO) v Jamie Hampton (USA)
Eva Birnerova (CZE) v (6) Christina McHale (USA)

Anastasia beat Lucie in three when they played on clay last year and has since closed the rankings gap.

Heather gets a TBA on the oop, as Panova was playing doubles in Acapulco yesterday

And now  * 5 -  6 

Missed another break apiece ( making 2 each this set which is relatively calming down on that front ) 

And could rather do without one now !
