(3)Johanna Konta (AUS) d. Alexandra Moreno-Kaste (COL) 61 60


QR2: (3)Johanna Konta (AUS) vs (wc)Maria Belaya (USA)

Her opponent is unranked and this is only her third tournament in the last year. She lost in the first qualifying round of this tournament last year and qualified for a 10k event where she won her only main draw match.

R1: GALLOVITS, Edina (ROU) 1 105 v WATSON, Heather (GBR) JE 335

Gallovits didn't drop a set in Dothan, Laura winning just 2 games off her, so a very tough draw

Why stop at calling Johanna Konta an honorary Brit?

Didn't Wozniacki's grandmother once go on a day-trip to London? That's about as much of a connection as Konta has ...

OMG draw from hell. So disappointed I was looking for a great week from Heather and now this. There is also a live stream from Friday onwards absolutely gutted.

She has lived here since she was 14. So if we were prepared to claim Novak I think Jo has a much greater connection.

As a fan of English cricket, I really couldn't care less where people are born.

Pretty much like being a fan of Arsenal. Hardly the epitome of 'British' teams (seeing as barely half of them are British... although I believe by law they have to be 50% British but that half are mainly... not on the field or bench)

But hey, a fan's a fan. If she says she's British, I won't stop her! I could say I'm Welsh, via a tenuous family link, but... well I don't say I'm English or British or anything either way but you put a gun to my head, I'd say British. Then English. Don't ask me why.

ANYWAY. Heather's last match against Gallovits, I don't think, was a true indication of her ability given that she needed to get somewhere else at the time. I'm not saying she tanked the match... buuuuuut...

*slinks away while you're not looking*

Toughish last FQR as her opponent is a decent junior.
