Impressive serving from Hev in this 2nd set - 4 aces already, no DFs and 74% first serves.

Beddy byes for me now - c'mon Hev give me some good news to wake up to!!

Hev wins 6-4 6-4

25pts so far and hopefully a decent main draw.

I think I heard correctly that Wozza had withdrawn and the main draw would be re-arranged

top stuff hev :D

that was a close hard fought match
three good wins back to back to start the season and at least +5 points
a full healthy year and theres no way i can see hev finishing outside the top 70

fingers crossed for the draw - think hantuchova would be best chance

The odd minor wobble over the 3 rounds, but all in all, excellent stuff from Hev

FQR: Heather Watson WR 121 beat (wc) Jarmila Gajdosova (AUS) WR 238 (CH 25 in 2011) by 4 & 4

Of the possible R1 opponents Heather has beaten Suarez Navaro (17) and lost to Kanepi (30). As far as I can see she hasn't played the other possible opponents, their rankings vary between 23 and 33.

Heather's drawn 9th seed Cibulkova in the 1st round, with the winner to play Date Krumm in Round 2 and then probably Serena in the QF.

R1: Heather Watson WR 121 v (9) Dominika Cibulkova (SVK) WR 23 (CH 12 in 2009)

Yep, really pleased. I didn't see the match, but was it the 'old' Hev back?

Well Done Hev

Tough 1st round but she should be feeling confident so may spring the upset

 Difficult but certainly not impossible IMO, especially as she's now got 3 matches under her belt.

Cibulkova can blow hot and cold, so chances, but overall top work from Hev, seems to have got all her fight back which stands her out as a player.
