Robson 7-6 5-5 Laura saved a set point and is still serving very well, 12 aces so far Her inside out forehand is hitting winner after winner. Very impressive!
Half-watching Laura Robson while following the Murray match - a set up and 5-5 in the 2nd after saving 2 set points - I can see why people are getting so excited by her!

Finally got to see Robson play today, and she looks as if she is going to be a top player as there didn't appear to be a lot wrong with her game at all, and she beat an opponent who looked to be a very good player as well (she defended very well, so I'm guessing clay will be her best surface)
She has a great chance of winning this event, but needs to keep playing like this.
Well done to Broady for winning as well, and 2 Brits in the QF's is a good return from the tournament.
Good match from Willis as well, as for parts of it he looked as if he was matching Tomic, who looks just as good as he was last time I saw him, and I remain convinced he's a top 50 player, and would be surprised if he hadn't won a futures event by the end of the year.
Bit disappointed to see Evans lose to a much weaker opponent, and that was a great chance to make the QF's, and then the semi finals as well.
Great comeback from Barnes and Marselek in the doubles as they looked out of the match in the 2nd and 3rd sets, so brilliant fightback to get into the second round.
Heather Watson and Tara Moore are in the QF's of the girls doubles, winning 9-7 in the 3rd, so for once the girls survived a potential choke, and it looks like Konta will join them as she's a set and a break up.
Good day on the whole for the juniors, and if Jade and Naomi can close out this doubles match it will be even better
Is Robson seriously being tipped to become a big player in the womens game? I have read how good she is but are people tipping her to be say top 50 or higher for sure.
