Johanna Konta plays in the qualifying draw:

 

Johanna KONTA (8) WR141 v Maria Fernanda ALVAREZ TERAN WR342

 

Match is on at 2pm local time. Winner probably plays top seed Kurumi Nara

Laura might be in the main draw here?

I hope so, she certainly left the same day as Hev.

Laura not down to play week 4 of this Asian swing which is the tournament Hev won last year.

Very humid again this year.

My board says:

"match suspended - heat"

I know they have rules but it's the first time I've seen it written like that.

NB All the other courts are continuing. So they can just melt ? And one match is in a third set . . .

And they're back. Must be that 10 (?) minute rule of time-out before the third set. Shouldn't really write 'match suspended' in that case . . .

Anyway, come on JO.....

Yes, it was the 10 minute rule - it's about 35C there at the moment.

Jo is about to serve for the match 3-6 6-1 *5-4
