Heise now has both a suspended singles SF and a suspended doubles QF ( winners due to play Emily+ in the SF ). The other singles and doubles finalists are in situ awaiting it all to unravel.

Only the one court scheduled today - first singles SF, second singles SF, unfinished doubles QF, doubles SF ?!  - so rather than split the singles SFs they played the other one first, delaying the one for players with doubles commitments until it rained again.

Edit : Ah, actually I see that Kung, the winner of the first singles SF, is Heise's doubles partner. Still having the singles SFs going on simultaneously would have helped ( though clearly I don't know why they didn't or maybe couldn't do this ).

Emily is finally back on court. Held her serve first up but then lost it next time round for the first break against her in the match. 6-3 2-2*

Good come back from Emily though, 15-40 down on Heise's serve, Emily survived three game points in all, got a BP and won it... then held serve comfortably to love. 6-3 4-2*

This time it is Emily who blows a service game lead unfortunately, after having failed with another BP in the game before. So back to 4-4* second set.

Another two bites and this time round Emily manages to take one. She will now have her first opportunity to serve for the match. 6-3 *5-4

But she breaks again and will serve for the match *5-4

(Must say her serve has been letting her down today, ony 34% first serves in the second set)

Well, she's done it and congrats to Emily... Saves two BPs against her then wins on her second match point

This is now a definite CH win for her, and with the other win against a top 400 player in the QF, marks Emily's two best wins in succession, and will push her ranking to a CH herself, regardless of the final tomorrow, against another obviously talented young Swiss miss.

Heise and Kung finished their doubles match in quick time, so will be playing Emily and Caty "After rest"

Albeit, this time, by virtue of playing only the one set so far this tournament, Emily is nevertheless half way towards making her fourth consecutive $15K doubles final. She leads with Caty, 6-2
