laura "moidered" 'er 2 + 1! niculescu next

kundalini · Specialist Reporter + Intermediate Club Player

Niculescu appears to have served a lot better than G-H did. 73% first serves in play with 0 dfs, though broken 6 times in 11 games. Laura will need to improve on her 42% first serves in play.

Well done Laura and Anne. Sadly I can't get into the new livescore to follow matches, can anyone help please.

what device do you use
how do you access
have you installed the latest shockwave flash

My laptop, it was fine a couple of days ago, and now it's not...
I use Internet explorer, and have flash.

If you are unable to access the new scoreboards you can still obtain the old style live scores by for example visiting http://www.livescorehunter.com/Livescores/Livescore-Tennis.html and clicking on the tournament you are interested in. Clicking then on Live Scores brings up the Protennislive scoreboard, and if there are live streams available you also have links to those.

Thanks David, this seems to work fine.

Progress....hmpf!

I can get the new scoreboards to work in IE9.
but IE 8 glitched it on menu transitions
perhaps update to 9 would help if not already on it (recommend different browser generally though :))
also check for latest version of flash at http://www.adobe.com/products/shockwaveplayer/

otherwise what error do you get

I'm on IE8, so that would explain it. Which browser would you recommend and why? (Sorry I'm abit of an old fart stuck in my ways for browsers!)

blob · All-time great

just my 2¢, but anything other than IE, cos it's slow, inefficient, cluttered, unstable and a bigger security threat than the others .......... for starters!!!!
i use chrome or firefox about evenly

just an example of one thing and IE performance
from cold ie9 takes 42 seconds to start up ready for use on my laptop (with no add ins installed!)
chrome 7 seconds, firefox 8

other users experiences may vary!!!

DavidC - thank you so much for that information!!!

I'm very relieved the old-style scoreboard hasn't disappeared completely.
