Should she get through that, Halep probably awaits her in the second round

I think Hev can win this match.

Yets, I heard Hev. She sounded in a really good place. Was interesting discussing being more attacking, which she certainly agreed that she was purposely being. Said it was a bit difficult to get used to, having not previously played like that, but it was actually, as well as working pretty well, a more 'fun' way to play.

Re her draw, greedily I was hoping for a decent R1 draw ( and she has that ) and then the potential of a low seed in R2. But at least, a decent R1 chance and then probably a big challenge if she comes through that. But it is high time that Heather Watson best a top 20 ranked player. She's in form, it's a Slam, here would be good !

Halep is in decent form, but Hev has played well against her in the past, so not impossible.
The 1st round is a very good draw, and probably just a par performance from Hev maybe enough to get her over the line there.

JoKo came out last in the lucky loser draw between the top four FQR losers

The order (might be useful in helping to keep track if LL places do come up and get filled):

Dolonc
Begu
Babos
Konta

Pff typical. Although I don't think any withdrawals are expected anyway.

At least she definitely knows she has zero chance so she can get back to blighty, without having to wait around until Tuesday.
