Just to add a little to that

The meeting was in Indian Wells with Galina winning 7-5 0-6 6-1. At the time of meeting she was also ranked higher than Anne (113 v Anne's 132)

This is a very tough match - Galina seems to be returning from Injury. Earlier this year qualified for a $220k event (when ranked 550) and then took out Maria Kirilenko and also recently won a $25k event in Casablanca.

Anne 0*-1 0-2* 1*-2 1-3* 1*-4 2-4* 3*-4 3-5* 3-6 (had break back points but GV converted 3rd set point)

the serving woes continue - including a foot fault

0-3*

Anne loses 3-6 0-6

Defeat no shock but the scoreline is

7 bps each - the difference was that Voskobaeva took 5 of them Anne only 1.

According to the scoreboard Voskoboeva took  6 / 7 BPs against Anne's  2 / 7  ( I think you were maybe looking at BPs saved ) though obviously still gives much the same message.

That said, all Anne's BPs were in a more competitive first set with most points being on Galina's serve.  First set points  were  27 - 35,  2nd set points  11 - 26, overall 38 - 61  so ultimately very conclusive.  

 

 

Cripes, women's doubles between two scratch pairings.

I can hardly contain my excitement ....
