Our girls are playing on Court 2. I shall weep if this is not the court they cover tomorrow

Guess what ! They are covering Court B - the 2 quarter finals not involving Brits

I believe that's what they call sod's law, JC! furious I'd almost have put money on it, but I'm not a betting woman. wink

The most annoying thing is that a couple of days ago Court B had the best matches on, but then Bet365 covered Court 1

Mel: "Possibly the worst level of tennis out on the court today. Need to change it for doubles"

I assume that means JoKo won, but you can never be sure with tweets like that.

I assume then its a Diatchenko( impressive today) JoKo semi.
Stanciute is also on the way to an impressive victory in her quarter final match and will play the winner of Laura/Tara's game.

steven · Tennis legend

Well done for asking Mel, Phil - I always feel a bit awkward about asking "does that mean you lost then?" but you managed to do it in a nice enough way

philwrig · Hall of fame

Yes, Mel was good enough to reply.
Also latest score from Laura/Tara's match is 3-1.

Per BT twitter:

Laura won 6-1 6-1
JoKo won 6-2 6-4

I don't think either will make the final, thats called an antijinx.
Both Diatchenko who qualified for Wimby and then lost a tight match against Hantuchova and Stanciute who demolished a 25k field a couple of weeks ago are in very good form.
