She's off the live score but completed matches says the score was 1-6, 6-1, 5-4. Maybe the other girl retired?

I was following it on the scoreboard and I'm pretty sure Katie had 40-15 (at 5-4 up) so I'm presuming she actually won it 6-4 in the third. I looked at the completed matches and it's not the only match to be done as 5-something.

Katie led 40-15 and then it just disappeared, so have to presume that she won that point to win or the match (or her opponent was a really bad loser and retired at match point... making sure that Katie didn't have a chance to choke)

Good win... but losing the first set wasn't the smartest idea

One of the other match results had a 5-2 score line to the player who won the 1st set.

Well Done Katie

Pleased Katie has some reward for tackling tough clay tournaments. Next round will be very tricky though if Barbora ZS wins as expected tomorrow.

Barbora ZS duly won 62 62 and plays Katie at 12 local time (11am BST) tomorrow - live scores should be available.

The original Brit girl basher. I really have issues against this one but I'm sure she's very nice.
