Fantastic to see Heather win her second WTA title and to do it without dropping a set too!

If you count the Hopman Cup win that must be 12 sets in a row now? Gotta be good for confidence even if she may be a bit tired (I guess the lack of 3-setters helps there too).

I don't have bt sport so thanks to Peter Too for making following it possible without staying up!

Amazing stuff from Hev. What a start to the year!!!!

I'd like to see her get a good run in Aus open but who knows what will happen.

Fantastic week for Heather; congratulations on her second WTA level singles title and a new CH (E&OE!) in the new rankings list :)

Fingers crossed for the AO (particularly with 180 points to defend in short order from last year's AO qualies and her Midland title)

It would be wonderful to see a smooth progress for Heather now to the world top 12 I predicted for her [on another, now defunct, board ;)] back in 2008 (albeit I said by the start of 2012!).

Nice article about Heather in the Guardian as per Steven's tweet

So delighted for Ms Watson - a joy to see such a lovely person doing so well, especially after the difficulties of her illness. Two titles. Hurrah!

Great result. Very difficult conditions but similar to her previous matches, closeto middle of first set and then pulled away.

Second WTA title. Couldn, 't ask for better start to 2015. biggrin

What a great week for Hev She should now take out her Feb 2013 career high of 39, moving up to about 38

Excellent win.

I've just watched the match and conditions were horrible. Heather struggled early on, but as the set went on Heather became more and more consistent and Madison became more error strewn and the second set was fairly comfortable.

Heather had a lot variation more to her game than Madison and the drive down the line and backhand cross were particularly effective today.

Fabulous - so happy for her. I have no internet upstairs and it takes quite a while to get the Other Half up, washed and dressed, but I sneaked into the spare room where there is a tv and checked teletext. Good luck for the AO, Heather - I hope the good form continues.
