A news report on BBC 5 live earlier said British interest on the ladies side was over after Elena's defeat. confuse

No surprise there then.
Greg was also asked on Eurosport about Katie's chances and described Katie as playing well at the moment.

You're all missing the big news of the tournament. According to the BBC, it's goodbye Kristina Mladenovic and hello Kiki Mladenovic :)

The bookies give her a 46% chance of winning and I'm pretty sure that if Elena or Anna had drawn Craybas, they'd actually have been favourites to win. Hopefully this is the kind of chance Katie can take.

Oh Katie Katie Katie disbelief

0-5* - Anne K's 1st set (no getting bagelled) is beginning to look like a major triumph. I can't believe Katie's doing this badly given who she's playing. Still, when I saw her win a match at Wimby, she was on early and didn't wake up until the 2nd set, so maybe all hope is not lost yet ...

Oops - mis-remembered - she beat Kloesel in straights, but she was a break down early on, so not nearly as extreme as the 1st set here. Nice to see her a break up in the 2nd though smile.gif

Oops, that didn't last long ... cry

Don't pay attention to the stats. I'm pretty sure they just put down whatever number pops into their head first.

Cmon Katie!
