Thursday Sep 27 10am: Laura Slater v Olivia Janowicz Followed by: Stephanie Cornish v Lilly Kimbell Followed by: Heather Watson v Kristie Ahn Followed by: Hannah James & Slater v Janowicz / Kimbell
LTA bulletin: GB joint team captain and LTA coach Luke Milligan said: "Today was a day of missed opportunities and we are unfortunate to finish the day 4-0 down.
No less than three wins will do on Friday and well have to work hard as a team to make that happen. It is not beyond our capabilities though.
LTA coach Iain Bates added: "We had a tough day and lost some close matches despite creating a lot of opportunities.
We need a strong response from the girls in the morning to get us back in the tie."
Friday order of play Hannah James V Alexandra Cercone Tara Moore V Jacqueline Cako Laura Slater V Lilly Kimbell Steph Cornish V Olivia Janowicz
Hannah James bt Alexandra Cercone in 2 (64 75 I think) Tara Moore bt Jacqueline Cako in 3 Laura Slater loses to Lilly Kimbell (60 62...not great) Steph Cornish V Olivia Janowicz isn't over yet but Steph is 3-1 down in the first. I got a mention from Ken, too :)
That was really close! Tara was the best member of the team although she is the youngest. Ken really likes her too, I think he must be in love with her! I think Tara really has a great future.
