Katie loses 4 & 2. cry

If you thought Anne K's breakfest in QR1 was bad, this match went ...

Yuan holds
Yuan BREAKS
Katie BREAKS
Yuan BREAKS
Katie BREAKS
Yuan BREAKS
Yuan holds
Katie holds for the first time (saving 4 set points)
Katie BREAKS
Yuan BREAKS


Yuan holds
Katie holds
Katie BREAKS
Yuan BREAKS
Yuan holds

Yuan holds
Yuan BREAKS


Yuan: just 6 winners / 13 unforced errors (net -7)
Katie: 31 winners / 49 unforced errors (net -18)


Crazily, Katie got broken in 7/9 service games despite a 1st serve % of 67% - she only won 43% of the points where she did that, 39% when she didn't.

In fairness to Anne, Niculescu has just beaten no. 1 seed Bychkova 1 & 5 to make it to the main draw!

Seems a real shame that after a positive start we have no female through to the main draw.
That hurts.
