I was thinking Heather is the 'winner' here even if she loses because, ranking slip notwithstanding, Mirza's too good for 25Ks. But she won!

Which is great.

Oh me of little faith.

Ditto

Thought Mirza might just be too tough an ask so I'm ecstatic with that; congratulations, Heather

[br]I'm sure you'll be visiting this thread today Vohor - so let me be the first to congrtulate you on bringing up your 4,000 posts - you're slowing up sir but still pushing them out at a fair rate!!

I'd like to be able to say that I'm late logging on today because I managed to get across for the Wrexham final, but I can't ; family birthdays, huh?

Steven has Heather as world #220 and GB #5 (just in front of Laura now) when the 50 points go on. Excellent that no sooner has her $10k win dropped off (although she couldn't defend it even if she'd wanted to, Frinton having been turned into a mens event: LTA news please note ) she's got a $25k title to replace it

That's a really impressive scoreline against a player in the 130's WR wise.

Heather appears to be evolving nicely and it's great she is giving Laura a run for her money up the rankings.

It appears we have two genuine contenders for Top 100 rankings to add to the old guard much sooner than anticipated.

I wonder what Team Heather;s game plan will be? Mel worked very hard in being a 25k bully to make it to WR99 but sadly when that got her into the big tournaments she has suffered quite a reverse

How will Heather play it

As a juinior winner surely the team should be thinking big like LAura's and giving her a good mix of medium and big fish tourmanents as they come along?

[br]fantastic - does anyone know what this will do to her ranking? she must be pushing close to automatic entry for US open qualies? xxx


Looks like Heather will be about 220 on Monday.
Does anyone know the likely US Open qualies cut-off mark and the cut-off date?
Do they give their reigning junior champ a WC or WCQ?

Grand Slams must give junior winner a QWC - apparently its now a rule?

Cut-off last year was 220-ish but droped to around 235 when the draw was made.

Big new singles CH for Heather to day on the back of this: +43 to #219 and overtaking Laura to be GB #5

Likewise Lisa; +23 today to #284

First ranking for Fran at #954

Big new dubs CH for Tara +87 to #432

First dubs counting score for Fran: not a bad start with 50 points!
