(3) Katie Swan v (WC) Bianca Turati (ITA)

Ekaterina Kazionova (RUS) v Maia Lumsden

Katie is now warming up...

On the same court earlier, Dalma Galfi lost, leaving KS as the top seed in her half of the draw; and in the second game, her opponent's twin sister has just lost...

Ahh but like most sets of siblings in tennis, the twins are nowhere near the same standard  - Bianca being by far the stronger of the two...

Not looking good for Katie 4-1 down

In the doubles Katie and Dalma are top seeds and play the Arakawas in the first round.

Bah, as close a match for Katie as had been warned about, although bit of a fall away in scoreline in that final set.

Pity re Maia too.

Onto the doubles ...
