I heard Sophie's playing Sydney...I hope they will give a WC to Iveta...coz otherwise she can't defend her finalist points from last year. (But I doubt she will get it).
Yes Sophie in Sydney.
Iveta Benetsova is in Quali draw. She will Qualify don't worry about it beacause a kot platers withrew from the list including Sania Mirza.I'm hoping for a WC for Mirza. so that she can get some matches under her belt before Australian Open. Anyway all the WC's will go to Aussies i believe
Sophie didn't make Sydney - she's not in the quallie draw for Sydney and isn't in the maindraw as th w/c's went to Sam, Nicole and Casey. Can't see why the 3rd w/c for Hobart won't be hers.
Mirza, in her post match interview at the hopman cup did mention that she was off to Hobart (source: Hopman Radio on the official site). Since she's not in the qualifying line-up she may have possibly been offered the third WC.
