Good week for Inglis

Wow just realised Yadlapalli was in Melbourne earlier this year for rehab, but was stranded by COVID. I wonder if she eventually got to go home, or has been there ever since. If she has, I'm glad she's finally playing these and making some money!

The 21-year old tennis player has a visa that expires in a month, savings strained, and hopes of a return home spiraling out of control.

No AO Playoff, but 6 MDWCs for Aussies.
Qualifying in Dubai hmm wonder if any Aussies will actually go? (Apart from Perez)

Considering that Charlotte thumped Perez today, maybe she should get a MDWC? She certainly deserves a QWC at least. Don't forget that she won an earlier edition of the UTR series.

^Still think she's a bit young/inexperienced for a MDWC when 6 of them have to be shared (dependant on the entry list) between Stosur, Sharma, Inglis, Cabrera, Hon, Rodionova, Sanders, Aiava and Gavrilova plus anybody else that I may be forgetting right now. However a QWC for sure if she wants it.
I think Stosur and Gavrilova would be locks for MDWC.
Remaining 4 is probably Sharma, Inglis, Cabrera and Hon. Rodionova, Aiava and Perez outside shots.
QWC is tougher to decide as we don't know who is fit or not. I imagine Sanders is a lock for this.
Assuming Perez makes it in on her own ranking, we potentially have a toss up between McPhee, Fourlis, Mendez, Hives, Myers, Popovic, Woolcock, Bozovic, Birrell, Gadecki, CKP...
McPhee, Fourlis, Birrell haven't played in a long time - out with injuries/surgery, might not even be ready by AO. I think Birrell might've used PR.
Mendez depends if she wants to travel to Australia.
Hives is back in action, but still quite rusty. I think she may have entered with PR too.
Bozovic, Gadecki, CKP showing good form from UTR, I think they'd have high chances. Followed by Woolcock, Myers, Popovic.. Not sure who else I'm missing.

Stosur has an outside shot of making it directly if few players don’t enter. Also we don’t know if qualifying field will be reduced to 96 players for example
It will be interesting to see who will get the international WC if it is not Clijsters

Sam should be a good chance for DE, I imagine a fair few players may not wanna come down and quarantine etc with such a limited/sketchy lead up. 6 WC's will be a nice change, especially as it'll be a little tricky for the girls to travel to Dubai and back. I'd say Sam, Astra, Maddy, Liz + Dasha would be locks. I think Pri is still injured? Hasn't been practicing so not even sure she'll be fit. I wouldnt mind Storm getting one, seems to be playing very well.
I assume we would still get qualifying WC's even though being played OS?

Storm will play today so i guess it is not a serious injury

Some interesting stats from the UTR series here: UTR Pro Tennis Series: Bozovic leads top-performing women
Especially the prize money won:
I think Bozovic, Gadecki, Mays hugely benefitted from this. Received a LOT more prize money than they would in regular years without having to travel far and not paying for flights, accomodation etc.
