The seedings for the boys especially are all over the place and my brother, who is nothing special( and he wont mind me saying has no chance even in the first round ) has a really low ESF ranking yet he is in the first round without prelim when he would lose to nearly everyone in the prelims. rather silly.
And the girls well i have a reasonably difficult first round when there are some matches where i would both players with my hands tied behind my back. although admitedly when i look at the seeds i have no chance of gettin anywhere near the title. I saw Camille Serme play a few weeks ago in the under 19's and her composure and accuracy is just plain awesome. It will take one amazin player to beat her!
