Lauren lost the first 6-2 and 1-1 in the second.


That's a nice surprise after seeing the Shrewsbury tweet "Lauren lost the 1st set but has held serve in the 2nd" - I assumed it was a diplomatic way of saying she'd been bagelled in the 1st!

Hoping for a good couple of weeks for Sam - QF mininum and another jump in the rankings on the back of this.

Mel has started well. Excellent run to pick up a drop shot (let's hear it for those fitness blocks) and some great deep hitting. Bit early yet (2-2) but good tennis.

Harriet lost 6-1 6-1.

Mel had lots of BPs at 3-3 but Ana played very well to save them.

Mel down a set and a break, but actually playing well. Forcing a high level out of her opponent

Mel lost 6-3 6-2 but it was a very good match from both women. Excellent level.

(Squeaky Oceane is gone too)

Both Beth and Katie lost their first sets, not surprisingly, to the far higher ranked French women.

Beth and Katie both went on to lose in straight sets, but took 6 games each off top seed Feuerstein & former top 60 player Coin respectively, which seems more than respectable under the circumstances.

Looks like just Sam and Emily who will face top seed in the next round will make it through. Naomi and Jade set and break down each.
