Exceptional draw for Laura she should quarter here.No chance for Hannah. Steph should make 2nd round and Heather will find it tough from the 2nd round onwards although not impossible

Hannah put up a good fight before going down 7-5 6-3. She came back from 4-0 to 4-3 in the second set, but couldn't take the breakpoint(s) in the next game to get right back in the match

Hannah was competitive but when Babos stepped it up at 5-5 in the 1st she lost 6 games on the bounce and thats where she lost the match.

Things not going too well for Steph. She took the first set 6-4 but then lost 8 games in a row, broke back for 2-2 only to lose serve again, so is currently at 2-4 in the third

Poor from Steph but she has had no clay court preparation.
