There is a live stream from court 2 so we may be able to watch Wabson later on today.

 Have you managed to get the live stream to work? I get a message saying Site Currently Unavailable, and it would be good to know if it's just me or if the stream isn't currently available.

 No stream at the moment, but the streamed match  (I think) is still suspended.  other matches have retarted.

 

Hoping to drive over to see Wabson ()   IF the weather allows the match to happen.

Tara Moore v Anne Keothavong is on the score board, I assume it is a doubles match.

Unfortunately the live stream is still showing Doi v Radwanska while Wabson is playing on another court.

How do they decide on the WR? I am surprised to see Wabson with such a low one.

 They add the doubles ranking of the two players together. 

Heather is 143 and Laura 1073 so their combined ranking is 1216.
