Kiwi tennis number one Marina Erakovic has breezed through three rounds of qualifying to reach the main draw at the WTA tournament in Tokyo.
Erakovic will face fifth seed and world number 12 Sara Errani in the first round today.
Erakovic is in desperate need of some strong results in her final three tournaments of the season, having dropped more than 20 places to 103 in the latest WTA rankings.
If her ranking doesn't improve significantly the Aucklander will need a wildcard into Auckland's ASB Classic in January.
