Can-American Carson Branstine almost squeezed straight into the main draw at the WTA 125 in Oeiras, Portugal, which has about 50 per cent more prize money than the standard 125 ($168,100 vs. $115,000)
But as it is, she’s the No. 1 seed in qualifying and you’d think she has a great chance at getting through to the main draw and doing some damage.
The final round of qualifying took in both Stuttgart and Rouen.
(Stuttgart and Rouen are six hours ahead of EDT; Oeiras is five hours ahead).
