On the face of it a rather strange choice given she chose to compete here and then there was such a good chance that it would reach the stage that she just had to sign in to be a LL. Big tournament.

Unless say a concerning niggle it doesnt appear to make a lot of sense.

L28: Giuliana Olmos & Jessica Pegula (MEX/USA) CR 244 (51+193) def Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) & Olivia Nicholls CR 48 (24+24) 6-4 6-3

They were defending 120 points here, so a net drop of 110. But for these two weeks they are still up on last year (325+10 against 10+120)

Emma is 4th on court 2 after a 7am start. Not before 11am but I suspect it will be later.

There normally have been no mandatory points in women's doubles.

So last week's 215 points would replace their lowest counter of 81. And this week the 81 will come back in to replace last year's 120 points. Net up 95 points points for the 2 weeks.

Thanks Indi - I didn't check the non-counters but just compared with last year. Still creeping up the rankings, but a bit further to go to achieve that elusive #8 seeding. But they will soon have the 650 points from Indian Wells to defend .......

 Understandable but she is in the wrong job then.
