I can't see that either. Certainly doesn't show on the mobile wimby app.

It's on the Wimbledon order of play on the website now but definitely wasn't there last night. Must have just been a mistake that it was left off.

Grönefeld tweeted earlier to say that she got a surprise this morning when she found she was due to play after all, having thought she wouldn't be when she wasn't on the OoP on the Wimbledon site last night.

Court 2 is now empty - I'd expect them to be assigned there soon.

Not surprisingly, Laura looked a little jaded as they lost 4-6 4-6. Lisa Raymond was good in patches but also guilty of a few too many errors. Opponents seemed well organised.

tony_orient · ATP qualifying

Groenefeld/Peschke did two things really well - the made sure Lisa Raymond didn't get too many volleys off return of Laura's serve (being willing to miss more returns to make the ones that went in count) and also not letting Laura have any baseline rallies. It also showed how effective it is when you have two players at the net who are both excellent at making tough volleys.
Laura's lack of doubles experience understandably stood out amongst 3 veterans. She was still our only winning doubles player though.

Robmund were outplayed in all areas and never looked like winning. Groenefeld was outstanding. Laura looked somewhat naïve in her doubles play and it was fairly obvious it is a newish partnership. No idea how they made a master's final from what I've seen since.
