Elena finished with a flourish, breaking (to love, I think) to win 3 & 4

She'll play the winner of Kremer-Fitzy, which got back on court a lot later - 6-7(3) *2-5 deuce

Sadly, but not expectedly, it'll be Kremer, who polished off the second set by 6-3. cry

H2H for Bally v former world no. 18 Kremer (now WR 149) is 1-0, 3 & 0 @ Doha qualifying in 2006.

Baltacha *1-0

seagull · Hall of fame

2-0*

Bally takes the 1st set 6-3

Fitzy and Katie break Borwell and Black in 1st game.

steven · Tennis legend

Five years after doing a demolition job (3 & 0) on former world no. 18 Kremer, Elena does another one - 3 & 1

That'll take her back ahead in the "most points since the start of 2011" race - she was neck and neck with Hev (518 each) last night!

R1: Anna Fitzpatrick & Katie O'Brien lost to (4) Cara Black (ZIM) & Sarah Borwell by 3 & 1 cry smile

AK currently leads Stéphanie Dubois by *3-2 (had points for a break in the fifth game! hmm ).

daisy · County player

Dubois took the next 2 games so it's back on serve with Anne *3-4 and 40-30 .... deuce ...... DF to give Ad to Dubois

The Canadian breaks again and will serve for the set at *5-3

Which she duly did! bleh 1-0* in the second...

daisy · County player

Anne has broken Dubois and is serving at *2-0 in the 2nd set.

AK engineers a break to lead by *2-0 - but can she hang on to it? That's the $64,000 question! hmm

daisy · County player

Dubois had a game point at 40-30* but it's deuce now ....... and Ad and breaks back for *1-2.

C'mon Anne!
