6 points in a row from 1-2 in the tie-break. Nice!

Not home and dry by any means yet.....it's from the middle of set 1/beginning of set 2 that opponents have often zoned in on her serve, so vigilence alert!

Broady takes first set on the tie break. I hope she goes on and wins would be a decent scalp to kick start her season.

From what i've seen and heard about Naomi, if she gets into a good rhythm she is capable of beating most, but she is very inconsistent.

Thanks - I remembered seeing 2-2 and after tweeting last 5 points in a row, I wondered if she had been 1-2 down (and hence won 6 in a row) rather than 2-1 up but wasn't watching at the time.

And yes, I'd love her to win this but there is a lot of work still to be done.

Naomi breaks in the 2nd set 7-6(2) *2-1

This is more exciting than Fed Cup would have been today! LOL

 That's probably true.  And makes up for a mostly dire day so far !

Emily winning in Australia this morning, GB 4-1 v non-GB at Wirral Futures today ... I know Jade lost and Fed Cup succumbed to rain but it doesn't seem too bad a day to me.
