Laura faces BPs already, I think she had an Ace and the rest were all second serves, she needs to get the serve going as that was, by her own admission, pretty pivotal in the Hantuchova loss. I hope she wont follow Katie's route of having teh most frustrating serve in the world.

This guy keeps calling her Robinson too, how annoying !

Yeh Elena definitely has the most pressure on, which works out well considering she has such a great draw. This guy on radiotennis just butchered the pronunciation of Lapushchenkova

Ken's a legend in his own lunchtime wink

- when Georgie Stoop was playing Tatishvili in a Final last year, he managed to pronounce her opponent's name half a dozen different ways, all wrong, and his interview with Ilja Bozoljac, when he tried to get Ilja to explain how to pronounce his name, was a classic. smile
