Yes, they used to cover Eastbourne, but only from the Thursday I think.

Last year they showed the finals of the men's and women's matches on the BBC website and thus I assume the red button as well, so I guess they may do that again this year.

Going with serve so far at 2-2.

Bally *4-5

Both are doing their best in windy conditions.

Bally missed 2bp in the last game, Stosur saved one with an ace then another with a ridiculous angle with a forehand.

15-30...

Bally digs it out from 15-30 - 5-5*.
