Great to see Mimi getting into another semi final. I was worried a few months ago when Mimi didnt seem t9 be making progress but thats definitely not the case now.

That is a shame, after such a good week for her.

Var · Futures level

Another semi, knocked out the number one seed again. Sometimes think young players can run out of juice in tournaments when they first join the full time tour. Another tournament next week then I hope she takes a break.

She seems to be entered for events through December, incl the week starting 22/12. Presumably she won't play all of those?!

Next week for the Egypt W35 is understandable, especially now she is out here and may yet need more points for Aus Ooen qualifying - last chance for a counter.

The following two weeks' Tunisia W15 entries are very strange. Surely not at that level and especially with her going down under for at least the United Cup. Unless Tunisia could be a play a bit of tennis / training block thing??
