Jos 3-4*

Katie plays Makarova next, who will probably be too steady for her.

Yeh Mel has to win this! Her grass court season has been dissapointing, for sure, but she can turn it round if she can get some wins here, maybe one at Wimb.

Hard to believe this is a Premier, the points here are huge if Mels game can come together in time.

Mel had her first breakpoint and couldn't convert. Lepchenko converted her only one of the set.

Mel 4*-6

Things going from bad to worse for Mel, against an opponent with no track record on grass

Mel 4-6 0*-2

Glad Katie won. Very poor from Mel so far - all those Aussie 25k points have overinflated her ranking, I fear...

Rubbish. She won the points fair and square.


Mirza lost in Birmingham semis.

I wasn't suggesting otherwise...
She just hasn't got many of her points against top opposition (except on grass, which is supposed to be her surface but clearly isn't at present).

The rankings don't take opponent into account. We need to stop saying people have inflated rankings.

To even get a pro ranking point requires so much work

After a monumental game with about 6 breakpoints Mel finally gets back into the match at 3*-3
