Emma isn't playing as she is still having problems with her back, which means that there will be 6 qualifiers plus a lucky loser in the main draw.

Doubles

L16:- Tereza Mihalokova (SVK) / Olivia Nichols (GBR) CR60 (31+29) v Xinyu Jiang (CHN) / Fang Hsien-Wu (TPE) CR55 (27+28)

A good win against the pair just above them in the rankings - but they need to go further to overtake them.

L16:- Tereza Mihalokova (SVK) / Olivia Nichols (GBR) CR60 (31+29) def Xinyu Jiang (CHN) / Fang Hsien-Wu (TPE) CR55 (27+28) 6-2 7-5

QF:- Tereza Mihalokova (SVK) / Olivia Nichols (GBR) CR60 (31+29) v Lyudmyla Kichenok (UKR) / Erin Routliffe (NZL) CR15 (12+3) [2]

Tough ask against the semi-finalists from Queens, who beat Emma/Katie and Jodie/Sonay. A newish pair since Gaby Dabrowski is still out injured. As far as I can see Liv and Tereza played and beat Kichenok in Moterey last year and also beat Routliffe and Dabrowski in Beijing.

This result also will give them new career highs of 26 and 29. It might also move them up the Wimbledon seedings from 12 to 10 (if I have my sums right)
