Tiny ray of hope, a first BP, in Dominguez Lino's 9th service game. Until now she seems to have been rather efficiently taken apart by the 31 year old clay courter.
Good fight. Made several BP's and eventually broke back to stay in the match, and she is in it now more than at any time previously. But, holding has been hard for her thus far. Needs a good one here, and things could be on the turn... *3-5
It seems like Laura wasn't close to her best in this tournament - she got away with it against Date Krumm but not today. As well as Laura has been playing recently, we can't expect her to produce that level for every match. Disappointing to lose a very winnable match in a big tournament though.
On the plus side, a decent tournament overall for Laura, with 3 wins and 110 points.
