[Kutuzova]

After 10 first round losses in a row, she made a good decision to go back to the 25K level to get some confidence. She is the top seed in Brasilia, BRA this week. She won her first round in singles and doubles. The draws are below. Timea should be the only threat, but hopefully Julia takes is match by match.
