Fair enough to laugh at the Swedish pronunciation of Medina Garrigues ... but I'm pretty sure (for obvious reasons) that the Swedish interviewer pronounced Borås right, but that got an even bigger giggle!
I knew what å sounds like in Swedish because I spent a day in Båstad many moons ago - it's a disappointment to every young English visitor that it is pronounced 'or' not 'ar'!
Having been to Boras also this year, I think she was just laughing at the Swedish pronunciation not because it was wrong, but just because it sounds a bit unusual.
That 1st set really should have been Laura's and they should have been well into the second by now. Sadly, not the case and Laura now a set down 4 - 6.
AMG has had a habit of winning all the big points against Laura in the past and so far it's been the same here. Laura has won 2 of 8 break points, AMG 3 of 5.
