How great that Mika's playing with Olivia Gadecki. She should learn a lot playing with someone as experienced as that.

Nine slots available in the main draw, so one lucky loser ............

Would Mika be first in line for a LL spot?

Not massively surprised she lost this morning. Seemed quite ropey in QR1 - these are tricky conditions for her, slow hard courts and it often tends to be quite windy in the desert. At 16, she's still in the process of figuring out how to adapt her game when things aren't going her way.

No. LLs are selected from a random draw of all WTA ranked losers in the FQR

Zaytseva (***) gets the LL spot

Emily App would need to win the title here to gain points I believe and even then that would be only an extra 26 points.

However the points are tightly bunched in the rankings just above her and it would actually move her up an extra 4-5 spots so certainly worth doing.
