Player acceptance list. One in the top 10, who is a chance to withdraw as she is still in the seagull trophy. Not great. Suprised Barty and Halep are not playing it.

Apparently they were hopeful Barty my take a wildcard but it sounds like that woni happen. I know it's only a 250 and it's not this simple but I would of thought playing next week might mean one weeks less travel overseas during the year
