Imagine the outrage on the German tennis forum about Katie getting a wildcard!

Well the AELTC help fund it, don't they? Sonay Kartal received a main draw WC in 2023, and Katie Swan a qWC in 2022 (and then qualified and won a round). This is the first one since they upgraded to a 500 in 2024 though.

I noticed we don't seem to have a qWC into the men's 250 in Mallorca though. We've had these the last 2 years.

 I was reading some of the socials and actually it was pretty positive. Big jump in ranking for Katie last week.i actually posted as well and it was positive.

Broken from *40-0 and two more game points

*3-4

It's very close and good quality but she could have had this set wrapped up
