Great draw for Naomi but another toughie for Heather as this Chinese girl could be anything.
Slight concern over the amount of energy both girls have left but hopefully not going to be a problem.

EXCITING times. Keep it up Heather!

Zhang is a good player, her game is nice and neat and tidy but the LL she played in R2 gave her a few problems so Heather certainly has a chance.

As for Naomi, don't be fooled by Hampton's rank, she's 19 but has been injured or something and is only just starting to move up. She's a pretty good player.

Wow, great stuff all round.

Interesting if the LTA are really trying as much as possible to have many of the girls competing together.  Could really be helpful in creating atmosphere for success.  Be great if the times come when folk fear "The Brits are coming"  smile

Pleased for Mel that she is getting something out of the week after being so disappointed with her singles.

Good stuff again from Heather and Naomi. Really starting to make an impact now. Heathers two wins have been very impressive. What potential.

Good week for Naomi. Was expecting that, Hampton is a great player and severely underranked, just as Heather is. Cmon Heather!

Ah, pity about Naomi and the doubles.

Her result is on http://www.tennisforum.com/showthread.php?t=402849&page=16

Heather's singles was on first, but I can't find any info on it, other than Phil's fears ?

I think they must've gotten that result from Naomi's site as none of the other results are available either.

Yes, I see Naomi's site is quick with that info.

Heather's is not so quick, but in case anyone still didn't know she is Channel Islands Sports Personality of the Year  smile
