Laura vs Heather

tony_orient · ATP qualifying

I was thinking of setting this up myself but wasn't quick enough. Just as interesting would be 'Who do you want to win tomorrow?'

I believe Laura is a little bit rusty so you must give the edge to Hev, and it will feel a bit like 2 sisters playing against each other, very close off the court, but each player will be desperate to win on the court.

Well, after Heather's poor scoreline in Lux and Laura's good couple of results in Asia, I thought Laura may be slight favourite if this were played 1 week ago. But then today's scorelines make me thing Heather might be slight fav.

All I know is, forget the poll, I'm going to be there!

I think Laura would have been favourite this morning, but Heather won easily today and Laura was losing her match before JoKo's retirement.

I still voted for Laura but it could come down to who deals better mentally with playing this particular match.

Hopefully you will get to see both girls playing somewhere near their best tennis - if they do it will be a great one to watch.

Think I'd like Hev to win as she's been more consitent this year. I reckon it all comes down to who plays better. Hev's still got the game to cope if Laura guns at her though as she proved against Sharapova. Hev's definately got the better head.

The perfect attack meets the perfect defence - that line up usually produces a great match for the spectators.

Hev IMO. Just too consistent atm.

My main hope for this match is that it is closely fought, hopefully full of high quality tennis, but not onesided, which IMO wouldn't be helpful to either player.

I was thinking exactly the same actually, a one sided scoreline would not be a good way for whoever loses to end the season at all.

Lets hope for 3 sets of high quality tennis

I went for Heather. I just think at the moment Heather is just that little big better overall.

Sky sports suddenly showing this match is a reminder, if any was needed, that these two are going to be crucial for British women's tennis coverage in the future. Hopefully this will be the first of many encounters, but I hope the future ones will be on the main tour. :)

Aaargh I haven't got sky.

Can't believe even LTA website hasn't got anything on it.
