it is a long one!
yes! as tara breaks - hoping tara can wrap it up quick now
6-7(5) 6-3 *4-2

tony_orient · ATP qualifying

As is always the case, when there is a long game it seems pivotal to who will win the match. Tara has just won 2 long games in a row and is looking very good for the win as a result.

almost there... almost there... stay on target...
6-7(5) 6-3 5-2 *

Love game to win it!

Nice to see at least one ninja win today.

TomTraubert · Futures level

breaks to love to seal the deal

6-7(5) 6-3 6-2

a good comeback and fight
stats sugest tara the betterer player overall wonder if pihlwrig is there again and will confirm later
these are the sorts of matches she needs to win perhaps easier if she gonna kick on this year

well done tara

Another long Moore v Özgen match then, but this time without the long 3rd set tiebreak and the (from our point of view) right winner

L16: Tara Moore WR 212 beat Pemra Özgen (TUR) WR 224 (CH 209 in Sep) by 6-7(5) 6-3 6-2

QF: Tara Moore WR 212 v (2) An-Sophie Mestach (BEL) WR 136 (CH 131 in Oct)

H2H 1-2 - all in 2013, one retirement each and ASM won 8-6 in the 3rd set tiebreak in the other one. All of which suggests it could be very close and, er, a bit dangerous ...

Not there, but on the stats a great battling performance. Yesterday was a mixture of sublime brilliance with periods where she'd take the foot off the gas/lose her way. Still though very encouraging after what happened at the OZ open.
