Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Freya gets the break back :) 3*-4

And Harriet off flying 3-0

paulisi · Tennis legend

I see the Vajdova girls didn't have a great day. Nikola had a bagel and breadstick from Katy(winning a set in between), whilst the "dinnerlady" (Katy Dunne twitter reference) served out two bagels to Natalia.

Now they have given a walkover to Tara and Marta in the doubles

Freya saves three set points, misses game point, broken at the fourth attempt

7-5 4-6 0-0*

So close. Fought so hard so far

paulisi · Tennis legend

Harriet is running away with her match 6-0 3-0 up

You do see some strange results though at this time of the year....

PaulM · Tennis legend

Harriet blowss a combined dozen of points for *5-1 5-2* and *5-3 then misses 2 points for 6-5*

Now 5-6* down and looks like having blown her chance

Freya misses 4 break points across two return games and is *2-5 down in the third sadly

Well done Harriet!

She had to save set points to get to the tiebreak, blew a *5-2 lead and was brought back to 5-5*, missed a match point at *6-5 before finally taking it.

PaulM · Tennis legend

Well done to Nastya too!

Mervatron · Masters Series Champion

Great stuff from the girls. Good to see the young ones get a few good wins

paulisi · Tennis legend

Harriet v EWS will be interesting. Expecting one of Katy, Katie or Naomi to win through as well.

philwrig · Hall of fame

Well that worked out quite well and it could have been 8.

Fancy the Dunnmeister and Cav for the upset tomorrow.
