In the main draw we will have Sam and Dasha
In qualifying we will have Casey
Jarka and Ajla out injured
We will also have an additional player in the MD and the QD because of WCs. (Think the QWC is for not getting anything last year)
The MDWC (and QWC?) will be decided by a playoff next week consisting of Arina Rodionova, Jessica Moore, Priscilla Hon and Olivia Rogowska.
However, TA have barely revealed anything about this playoff besides a small hint in an article so I can't really type any more info out :lol:
I'm really curious as to how the playoff will work. There's no information anywhere whatsoever
In that article, it said it will be played next weekend (implying only 2 days I guess)
That means that it could be a knockout, 1R on Saturday, the final on Sunday with the winner getting the MDWC and loser getting QWC
OR
TA want to pose their shitty Fast4 format and play round robin :shrug:
Hold up, I just realised it's impossible to play both Saturday and Sunday next week because RG starts on Sunday. Btw, isn't the MD supposed to be out Friday how is TA doing this.... :spit:
I wonder if that article meant this upcoming weekend, but Jess could potentially be in a doubles final and Pri is still in London :spit:
Jess is out of the doubles, which the final was for Friday anyway, so she'll be ok for this w/e. Many easy travel options between London and Paris, one hour by plane, so there should be no issues for Pri either.
Where does the quallie w/c come from? Last years was written off when France wouldn't let us down grade the main draw one. Without checking they didn't get a quallie w/c from us this year did they?
Nope they didn't get a QWC from us this year. They did last year (Ferro) because that was in return for us getting one for Storm in 2014.
I have a feeling that the QWC is for still giving them a MDWC this year despite us getting nothing last year. The men also got a QWC too so probably 2 QWC = MDWC.
Very lucky we got a QWC, i was surprised to hear Matt Barton got the QWC, thought TA made a mistake as i never thought the french would give anyone other then french players QWC
Just checked the H2H and last time Moore also beat Hon 16 60 60
I wonder what would've happened if the draw was reversed (Arina v Hon and Moore v Rogowska)
Rogowska has a 2-1 H2H lead over Moore, and I think Pri would've been closer to beating Arina than she would've been against Moore today.
Btw, if Jess loses tomorrow and gets a QWC, but isn't scheduled to play her doubles match in Nurnberg until Tuesday (or say if they somehow won their R1), what happens then. Cause I would believe she's not allowed to withdraw and go play RG the next day?
Go Moore!!! I think either way both will struggle to win in MD but great opportunity especially for jess who hasnt been in main for years now.
Who feels Hon will still get the QWC over the other girls due to age?
