Doh. Crappy draw for Natasha. I don't think her recent results are good enough to give any real hope for an upset.

You really don't expect players to be going backwards in the rankings over the year when they turn 18 ... i wonder what's up.

That's a very good win for Rae though. smile.gif She gets Rodionova next, I believe.

jade's opponent was a top 50 junior who beat Tara a couple of months back. Not a massive shock as Jade doesn't seem to have the goods we all expected her to develop.

Good win for Joss.

Tasha has a hamstring/thigh injury, reporter on tennisforum says it looked pretty sore.

I wonder why Jade and Jocelyn didn't renew their Wimbledon partnership. It seemed to work pretty well with Jocelyn using her reach and height to provide the proverbial brick wall at the net while Jade ran anything down at the baseline. The only weakness seemed to be when they were forced to swap positions and Jade got lobbed or Jocelyn was forced to run.

So close for Jos, but a great effort. Looks like her big serve kept her in it there but just couldn't win the points that mattered in the tie-breaks. More disapointment for her in the doubles:

SF
PROUSIS (USA) / STEPHENSON (USA) (1) defeated RAE (GBR) / STARR (AUS) (4) 7-6(4) 7-6(4)
CURTIS (GBR) / HWANG (TPE) (3) defeated CALDERWOOD (AUS) / GOLDS (AUS) 4-6 7-5 [10-4]

Final
PROUSIS (USA) / STEPHENSON (USA) (1) Vs CURTIS (GBR) / HWANG (TPE) (3)

I can't belive how close Joss got there.

I've been a little dissapointed with Joss progress this year, i thought she'd be around 500 by now. This will take her to 650ish. heres hoping for a bigger year in 2009.
