Anne is the only Brit to make the cut in a strong event with 6 qualifiers coming from a field of 48. Anne's section is:
[3] Knapp vs. Keothavong Benesova vs. Ditty Petkovic vs. Georges [WC] Musgrave vs. [12] Kanepi
Karin Knapp is a fast-rising 20 year-old Italian ranked 50 in the world. She did however lose 1 & 1 to Naomi in the final at Orange last year. They are second on, about 2am GMT
Crazy game this. Currently stands at 5-5, with 4 breaks of serve each.

Long game that time but outcome the same as usual. Anne will have to break once more to take this to a tie break.

Game Anne. Nice start to the second set. They've both gone all Karlovic on me now.

And at that the scoreboard appears to have frozen. I'll post when it updates.

Thanks for the updates, good performance against a top 50 player, 1st set could have gone either way if only Anne had been able to hold serve ! Knapp's really shot up the rankings since that hammering from Naomi, hopefully one of the British girls will rise in similar style this year
shame to see Anne lose, but she took it closer than I expected against someone ranked so high. Thanks for the scores John.
