In WTA land, does a 250 semis place provide an SE for a 500 event the next week - or is her run in Osaka going to stop her ambitions for Tokyo?

No. A WTA 250 cannot get a WTA 500 SE.

Hopefully Kaite could still get a wildcard, which I think is what Cuup was hinting at

Thanks for the wildcard updates Lambda; I guess Katie will have a much needed rest, back as British number one. Close between her and Sonay though.
