First ever pro match I believe, so obviously a career-high win. And a good one at that - WR628

Super for Sasha to come out on top and in a match of such ebb and flow

In context, every bit as flabbergasting a result as those of Ms. Boulter & Konta this week, probably more so. A simply amazing debut.
Massively well done Ms. Hill

In the doubles:
R16: Keens/Wiiliam (GBR/GBR) lost to Am. Bowtell/An. Bowtell (IRL/IRL) w/o
R16: Lazic/Stuart (GBR/GBR) UNR (both UNR) defeated O'Connor/Carton (IRL/IRL) UNR (both UNR) 7-5 6-0

That point should get Amelia a doubles ranking? Adding to a point from Antalya 09/2017 & another from Sharm 04/2018.
It seems to be Ema's second counter, to add to a point in Baja last month.

Nice to see Amy Bowtell playing again.

Kimberly lost which is a shame if this was her first event as a 'true' Brit.

But not a huge surprise (although I don't know her 2002-born opponent and from what I can see she's got no great form on paper).

Kimberly's had a difficult time, with her asylum seeker status problems for her and her family, and everyone must wish her well.
But she has a very stiff, awkward game which tries to generate power the wrong way and it's difficult to see it going far.

Ema took the first set but is down in the second

 I've seen the young Irish girl play. Nothing special,average junior ranking.

Emily Appleton (bearing in mind her general poor form) is 1/200 to beat Georgia so make of that what you will. She was just about 8/15 to win today (Emily).

 Very nice  to see Amy playing again after a few years off.

Congrats to the Irish tennis federation - I know it's early days but they must be very chuffed with how things are going so far.

They got 6 girls through to R2, with an ITF point. All of them are unranked.

Of these, one is born 2003, one 2002 and two girls are 18, plus college girl, Julie, and Amy B back again.

That's a very good showing.

Emily on court *3-1
Ema *2-3
And good to see Amy B playing again (as said elsewhere) - she has just bagelled a qualifier in 20 minutes.
