5. Emily 129
6. Amanda 128

7. Katie B 86
8. Tara 86
9. Naomi Cav 85
10. Harriet 84

11. Fran 36

Time to break free and upward !

Excellent news - clay will probably help Tara at present as serve is less effective on clay and there will be no reliance on it.

Stream is working (court 1) www.wiesbaden-tennis-open.de/index.php but it's not pretty tennis now, she's making a string of poor errors.

0-4*

Conditions are heavy.

When Tara connects right, both her groundstrokes look really good, and she managed to stop the rot at 9

*1-4

Saves two match points but not a third, and goes out 75 61

Definitely an opportunity missed given the lead she had in the first set, but a much better week all the same.

4 set points becomes sudden death deuce...

Take it 6-2.

Tara's hands, I forget how classy her touch round the net can be.
