Excellent win and some good ranking points. QF will be a bigger test.

Great won for Danni.

Pauline Payet had a lousy start to the year, barely won a match, and has only just begun to piece some wins together. She's young and moved over to France (from the Reunion Isles) and has had a lot of difficulty finding her feet and adapting. Last year she joined the Centre National d'Entraînement and started some serious work and, bit by bit, things are getting better.
But she's still unpredictable - big hitter but not really all all sorted out yet.

Good luck, Danni - perfectly possible . . .

Never mind - it's always good to have faith (cue "I'm a Believer" song and start doing Shrek impersonations round the kitchen . . . )
