Is anyone at the venue today? Or is there any streaming?

If there's still stuff going on and maybe a Brit or 2, i'm getting a twilight ticket ie 4pm onwards. No court has more than 5 matches so everything will finish a lot earlier than yesterday.

Excited to see how Heather handles Vinci, shes got a chance for sure.

In regards to the top 100, how is it looking for Hev?

Good scorelines from Tara and Mel IMO, and very respectable from Anne considering she was a wimbledon SFist. Feel dissapointed for Laura though.

Just up a few places to about 107/108, probably one place ahead of Laura.

Hantuchova's loss to Czink means the top 3 seeds have all gone out today, so naturally Hev is playing the no. 4 seed, Vinci, who won s'Hertogenbosch WTA on grass last year.

More to the point though (and I hope I'm wrong!), it looks like Czink's win has dashed Bally's final hope of extending her 142-week stay in the top 100 - that timing difference between 2011 and 2012 really isn't doing her any favours! cry
