Unbelievable! It seems like she takes her tennis to a completely new level at Tour events.

Against the trend of the set Amanda serves it our for a 6-4 7-5 win

Good to see her back on track after the Felixstowe blip.

RODINA, Evgeniya RUS v SPREM, Karolina CRO
DUSHEVINA, Vera RUS v RUANO PASCUAL, Virginia ESP
O'BRIEN, Katie GBR v PIRONKOVA, Tsvetana BUL (5)

Sarah's match will not start before 5 to allow her time to arrive from Bad Gastein

Well done to Amanda. Shame she gets only 2 points for it! cry.gif That's way too harsh when you consider that first round losers get 1.

Wonder what Nastja Kolar will do against Ozegovic.

After mustering just 4 points in the first 4 Brianti service games Sarah gets 6 in the 5th to break back for 5*-5

Sarah loses 7-5 6-4

Shame to think that she will have earnt the same number of points as Ann Priska Schaeffer who managed to win only 1 game against Besser (which is good for Anne PS)

Will Sarah be playing doubles here?

Amanda :)

I think its been a great decision for he rto play WTA evenst to get comfortable at this level young. Th points are rubish though so she does need to mix in challengers to keep moving up the rankings.

In doubles

Amanda Elliott / Xinyun Han (Chn) vs (WC) Tina Obrez / Anja Prislan (Slo)

but

Sarah Borwell / Courtney Nagle (USA) vs (2)Klaudia Jans / Alicja Rosolska (Pol)

The Polish pair are well inside the top 100

Amanda should have started her second qualifying match, but the live scoring is down at present.
