Good performance from Jade to be competitive against someone much higher ranked.

Excellent to see Sam being super competitive against the top seed and has just taken the first set 7-5

Jade has just started on live scores, by breaking Kichenok in the first game and consolidating it
2-0*

Takes the first set 6-2
Very impressed with that, now just a repeat of it for the second set would be lovely.

The Ukranian isn't top 200 for nothing though, and strikes back hard to take the second set.
Jade gets in the board immediately in the third though.
Jade: 6-2 1-6 1-0*

Well, we know Jade is very fit and happy to go 3 sets, and has already done well to win a set, so chances...

Another breadstick 6-1 loses in 3 gulf in rankings too much over 3 sets. Well played though overall points wise.

Good week for Jade, and hopefully she will have the elief most of all that she can definitely step up a level.

Sam takes the first set from Babos!
7-5

Jade: "Lost in 3 sets today, tough but credit to my opponent who took some risks, they could have hit the back fence another day though! #nevermind"

Hard luck, Jade. Does look as if rather a lot of her opponent's shots were nowhere near the back fence !

In truth I rather think, whatever her supposed liking for 3 sets that I mentioned, as Jaggy indicated it looks just more a case of the markedly higher ranked player showing her superiority in the end.
