Eleanor lost the second set 6-2 and is 3-0 down in the final set.

Whatever the result a great first week back and to take a set of the second seed is no mean achievement.

Good chance, though, that it wasn't Eleanor that run out of gas but Yana who suddenly relaxed and played better again. But definitely great stuff . . . and not finished yet.

QF: (Q) Eleanor Dean UNR lost to (2/WC) Yana Buchina (RUS) WR 363 (CH 334 in Aug) by 5-7 6-2 7-5

A very encouraging week though.

Not to be, but what a great effort.

No WC next week, but the qualis look weak and the main draw is not too strong.
