Shes the 2nd seed? Think its similar level to Wagga Wagga though later entry lists in the Ozzie series include Inglis and other tougher opponents

I expect Taylah and Katie have got to know each other quite well over the past few weeks. Their's will surely be a pairing too strong for any pairing in this field

 I think Hule and Micic are probably too strong with a CR of 346 (125+221) - a bit higher than Taylah and Katie's CH rankings of 193 and 293. We shall see, if they get through and meet in the SF

 I presume Brooke is also done with Junior Tennis given she turns 18 in November?

 She's allowed to play juniors until 31 Dec (it doesn't matter when you turn 18, you can keep going in junior until the end of the calendar year)

But, yes, you're right, november/december, that makes no real difference biggrin

Good stuff 

Looking at the scoring, it seems as if it wasn't exactly a stroll for Katie with her match being full of games to deuce and 30. Lasted 1 hour 50 minutes, just 13 minutes less than Brooke's.
