I've seen two MPs come and go - allez, Sam !

40-0 - no problems so far
1 match point goes ...
and another ...
and the 3rd

Match point no. 4 ... taken

Sam completes a very impressive 1 & 4 win against the 5th seed - her best result of the year so far by a long way

GB improve to 6-27 against sirotkina

And that gives us three hopes in the top half (and, in a sporting way, we'll just have to let the others have the bottom half).

Sam had a 0-3 H2H against Sirotkina coming into the match too ... and she'll get the winner of a Q v Q match in R2

Katy has the right idea:

Excellent win from Sam, but Marta has lost to two Brits in the last two meetings now. Tara at Preston and Sam today.

Real big confidence booster for Sam.

There is real competition for GB slots 4-6 and possibly seven with Jade starting to pick up points.

 Wow - Katy must live somewhere posh if her neighbours have tennis courts.

Samantha will play Japanese qualifier Misa Eguchi WR 221 (CH 213 in 2012), whom she beat 2 & 2 in Traralgon in 2011.

Wow, great to see Sam bag a big win, and nice to see Tara winning. Shame that one of Naomi/Em had to lose. Hope Naomi can keep going now

Naomi and Tara need to win again to have any positive effect on their ranking points.

Sam and Naomi both have very winnable matches. Tara may be a little trickier.
