Week 31 - ITF ($60K) - Lexington KY, USA - Hard
Permalink  

First time Katy has won the 1st set against Hozumi since their first meeting in Aus Open junior qualifying in 2012 - she lost that in 3 and had only won one set in their 5 matches since then. This is the first time they've met outside Australia and she's now a set & a break up

It's not hard to imagine how gutted she was to draw her no. 1 nemesis yet again and I can't imagine this is going to be an easy match to close out, but she has already done very well to put herself in a position to win. Just hope she can finish it off, I'm sure it would mean a lot.

As if to underline the fact that it's not going to be easy to close out, she's 0-40 on serve at 6-2 *4-3

She won 5 points in a row to hold from 0-40 or 5-3* but two games later, serving for the match proved even harder 6-2 5-5*

Wow, Katy rebroke from 2 games points down - I can feel the determination from here and I'm 500 miles away LOL

Serving for it again ...

Wow, fantastic win for Katy, and that's the match of the three that we thought would be by far the hardest and thus the least likely to show a Brit win.

One more to go then, so good luck Katie!

 Yes, it's great the way she yells, pulls funny faces and then really grits her teeth

As you say, you can just feel it.

Really pleased for her. Super win.

Bektas played in GB back in February in the three indoor 15k tournaments. Beat Ellie Dean twice, two others as well, but lost to Maia in three in the QF at Wirral
