Of all tyrannies a tyranny exercised for the good of its victim may be the most oppressive.... those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience
0-15 AK almost lost footing, dumps ball into net 15-15 brilliant BH volley from AK from dipping ball 30-15 FH long
2 hours 15 mins play
40-15 excellent tennis from AK, great FHs suggest she can play at a much higher level 40-30 AK gets to net but misjudges delicate FH ace across court to FS BH
Anne's body language much better now, resuming control after FS distracted by crowd to lose her previous serv ice game. Obviously Brits!
15-0 AK runs round BH but FH fails 15-15 double fault
everything's crossed here
30-15 drive volley confidently put away by FS bug lands on CCTV mid rally 30-30 40-30 BH too good from AK deuce forces FS wide Ad AK blow out from FS, way too long
Absolutely stunning, well done Anne! I'm blown away, fantastic stuff. Best result by a British woman in quite a few years!

So brilliant to see a British girl qualifying directly and getting into the 3rd round of an overseas Grand Slam. Suberb! She deserves any plaudits that comes her way.
