There is another list floating around with Yastremska on it.

This list has her on it. Open the tweet again, and then click on the photo. #15. The photo is truncated for whatever reason. Qiang Wang should confidently plan to play Adelaide.

^^ Here's the full photo for anyone that is interested. Helpful imo, gives a better idea of the field. I was thinking a few of those names below Brady had just decided against participating here.

That's a pretty strong field. Looks very even. Maybe a bit too much for Andreescu after all this time off.

If she loses early in Melbourne, it won't be. Anyone who makes a deep run at the AO will probably pull out.

Andreescu is out, with another leg injury.

[JazzNU]

More than just Bianca are out. I have to pick a fantasy team and I was trying to do so last night while watching the match and I came to realize that a ton of people initially thought to be playing this are just not in Australia anymore. You'd think they'd want to get the opportunity to play another tournament in this relatively safe bubble, so I think this ended up being a bigger drain than people thought it would be,.

[JTContinental]

I'm assuming McNally must have left Australia once she didn't qualify for singles, because Gauff is playing doubles with someone I haven't heard of before

Yeah, maybe she is going to try to qualify in Qatar, Lyon or Dubai, next week's tournaments. I haven't looked at those draws but I assume she isn't on the MD automatic entry list.
