Like most expected. :) Nice to see Evelyne in the squad too :)

Indeed Expected. Els will be the obvious choice to play all the singles and doubles she can...

But who will play the other singles and the doubles? I go for Caroline (singles) and Elke (doubles).

elke should easily play the doubles. as for the other singles i'd probably go for flipkens or elke as they are young and have a lot to offer. imo at their best they are both better players than maes and the other girl.

Do you think Flipkens will get a chance to play singles? I think it would be a good decision. Els should obviously play singles and doubles, but Maes realistically would lose in singles to any of the U.S. squad, so you might as well give someone who's done so well on the junior circuit a chance. Ditto Elke should be given a chance to play doubles on the same reasoning.

Let's cheer for our team:
