Don't worry Sarah and Nagle knocked out the top seeds last year so let's hope she repeats the trick.

Great win today. smile

Wow, just remembered who they were playing, that's a very good win!

wolf · Tennis legend

They have been awarded a w/o into the SF.

The points from Bad Gastien last went off last week I think (along with the points for winning Felixstowe) so Sarah is only defending points from reaching the QF in Portoroz, I think. She can start moving up the rankings again now as she basically has nothing to defned until the autumn.

Yup points already off, which is why she slipped back down into the 90's.

This will push her right back up again.

Borwell/Fichman vs. Hlavackova/Hradecka (3)

Sarah and Sharon lost the first set 6-2 , took an early break in set 2 only to be pegged straight back. having saved 3 break points at 4-4 they have just broken the Czechs to make it 2-6 6-4, so it will be decided by a match tie-break
