She must be really annoyed as well, because before the match started, O'Brien was on court before Kloesel, there was abit of confusion of where Kloesel was, but she eventually turned up 10 mins late. So she could have had the first set sewn already. Talk about time management!

I was at this match for the second half of the second set. Katie went a break down as was having a terrible time, spraying shots out all over the place and getting really frustrated with herself and the odd line call.

Then suddenly she got a sniff of a chance on a Kloesel service game and took it, a look of sheer determination appeared in her eyes and after that she didn't look back and looked so happy to have won. biggrin

Strangely, this was about the only Brit match that wasn't packed out!
