Yeah, where is Sam?

I can't see anymore than 1 win from the all british class.

I would have liked to see maybe Em face BEYGELZIMER and get the upset

 On checking the rules and working out when Sam's doubles was played yesterday, I think she was still playing in Nottingham at the 4pm sign-in deadline, so therefore couldn't sign in by telephone

Unsurprisingly Amanda is struggling somewhat at present. She is trying her hand at WTA events for the first time, she is playing on an unfamiliar surface, clay is her speciality, and she is playing the top seed.

Amanda 0-6 *0-0

Just wish Amanda had avoided the seeds. her lack of experience on grass seems to be telling 1st set lost 6-0.

Fitzy is throwing away chances in ever game. Wasted opportunity.

Amanda does have some real gumption about her though. Making the second set much more competitive.
0-6 4-5* but has broken the Hampton serve twice.

Jamie Hampton serving at 5-4 in the 2nd - Amanda has seemingly picked up a bit

Q1: CARRERAS, Amanda (GBR) WC 320 lost to HAMPTON, Jamie (USA) 1 42 0-6 4-6

Amanda must have felt she had stepped off a cliff at the start of this match, all her services were being put away and she couldn't contain Jamie's service. She steadied herself in the 2nd and managed to hold service twice and break twice and her service percentage shot up.

Good experience for Amanda, at least showed something more of herself after a terrible first set.
Might have been interesting on clay if she could find her second set level.
But, about the expected result: 0-6 4-6

Hope this makes Amanda more determined to do well in the Wimby qualies.
