Yes! Manisha wins 4-6 6-1 7-5 biggrin

She'll get her ranking back and should be only just outside the top 1000.

Today's win also avenges a 3-set defeat by Partaud in juniors back in 2010.

Manisha is one set all !

Lost the first set 4-6, won the next one 6-1 (!).

So go, girl, good luck in the third.

Every game is taking AGES (well, over 5 minutes, because it's now almost 50 minutes after I posted the above, at 1 set all, and it's now 4-4 in the third).

Manisha has been behind the whole time and jsut managed to break back.

More breaks than holds in this match so far as another game goes to multiple deuces ... but Partaud ends up breaking and will serve for the match

 Yes, it looks like she will be GB no. 23 on Monday week, taking into account the fact that 6 of Sabrina's 13 points drop off then.
