Dubois starting to step it up, and this starting to look that it could go either way.

Heather looks exhausted and is dripping with sweat, her opponent looks much fresher.

Maza she smashed her racquet at Notts when she lost the first set TB against Czink.

Something needs to dramatically change for Heather to win this match.

Rare loss of composure for Heather but they have an extreme heat rule so there is a 10 minute break which should help her.
