I voted for fellow west aussie Jess Moore, tyra probably next in line after that!
Tyra had some good results lately! Well done!
Hope her and Jess re unite in dubz and finish the year both ranked in the junior top 30 or 40!

No not delusional TS Olivia has some potential no doubt, she did nearly crack top 500 a year or 2 back, which is good effort but she didn't keep going, for whatever reason??
ATM, i'd reckon Tyra would beat her!

Jessica Moore, but only just ahead of Tyra Calderwood. Incidentally, is Tyra Calderwood the younger sister of Bree Calderwood who held a world ranking 3 or 4 years ago?

I think Tyra and Bree are sisters
I picked Holland just to give her a vote!
Haven't seen any of them play but Jess Moore's results have been pretty impressive. Not a bad bunch of names there.
Quite often the talent is there, its the ability to cope with the extended overseas travel and homesickness etc.... Great that Tyra, Jess are constantly overseas to cope with being away early in their careers. Pity we aren't seeing Shayna anywhere

because jess didn't defend her points from last years oceania closed (in which she made semis in singles and won the dubz). tyra made qf last year and this year was runner up, meaning she'll leap frog jess
congrats tyra!!
