Anna Fitzpatrick was the wimbledon finalist right? Is she the same age as Jess and Sacha? she would be my pick for a tri-nation rival then..!

Anna Fitzpatrick lost in the S/F at Wimbledon to Radwanska...

She is a 1989er, same age as Naomi Cavaday

Marina did well to qualify in Quebec but lost to one of my faves in Olga P

Semifinals yup, still pretty impressive though

I personally think she stands a greater chance at being a top 50 player than Naomi does - nothing against Naomi, its just that apparantly she doesn't play all that well under pressure.

We could just make it a Tri-Tri Nations with New Zealand (Sacha, Marina, Ellen) / Australia (Jess, Isabella, Tyra/Olivia/?) / England (Jade, Anna, Naomi)

I reckon Tara Moore is pretty promising for the Brits as is the traitor Johanna Konta who used to represent Australia...

As for the Aussies, which Olivia do you mean, Olivia Lukaszewicz or Olivia Rogowska??
I personally believe the 3 best Aussies (in order) will be Isabella, Jessica and Alison/Alenka/Marija

Well at least womens tennis is on the up and up

I was meaning Olivia Rogowska but again that third place is really anyone's for the taking. There are a whole heap of promising young Australian's at the moment and it would surprise if in 2-5 years time there are upto a dozen Australians in the top 200.

Shona's advanced through to the final round of qualifying at the 25k Port Pirie tournaments, lets hope she can qualify from this point unlike the past few weeks.

kittyking · Nov 5th, 2007, 12:29 AM

2nd Round of qualies

Sacha JONES (NZL) (2) defeated Ying QIAN (CHN) 6-0 6-3
Shan-Shan LI (CHN) (15) defeated Chang XU (CHN) 6-3 6-3

Another bagel

Port Pirie 25k News

Shona lost in the final round of qualifying, again

Ellen Barry has drawn Melanie South in the first round, she could definately win this match but shes the underdog

Interestingly enough more Brits qualified than Australians

kittyking · Nov 6th, 2007, 12:15 AM

Yay Sacha qualified into 25k Taizou tournament
Sacha JONES (NZL) (2) defeated Shan-Shan LI (CHN) (15) 7-5 7-5
