British chances in Memphis second round?

Question

Britain is represented by two players – Elena Baltacha and Anne Keothavong – in the second round in the women’s tournament in Memphis. What are their respective chances of reaching the third round?

Answer 1

Baltacha is a very good chance. She’s just reached a career high ranking of world No. 70 and is playing 122nd ranked Valerie Tretreault in the second round. Keothavong might have a tougher time of it against Michelle Larcher de Brito, a Portuguese teenager who has been tipped for big things.
