Ouch! Great performance from Naomi to get so close, but if only...

A shame she lost but a good effort to make it so close. She could certainly win at Wimbledon again this year with a friendly draw.

JoKo up next v Diyas

Jossanna are 5-2 up.

This week or last, incidentally, is the start date from which qualification for the Rio Olympics is decided. They are in with a shout of making it.

So sad thought she had it there. All too familiar British story. Win would have taken her back in the top 200 again. Here's hoping for Harriet tomorrow.

They take the first set 6-3. 100 points for winning a first round match is the prize.

Jossanna into a MTB, after losing the second 5-7.

JoKo a break up at 5-3*, deuce.

Josanna have saved 3 match points in the MTB 6-9 to 9-9....

Jaggy1876 · Grand Slam Champion

They've done it 11-9 in the MTB 5 points in a row. Good pay day for them now!

Great win for Jossanna - looked for all the world this match was going to slip away from them throughout the tie-break, but fought back from 6-9 to take it 11-9

A nice one to win in terms of rewards too - 8 times as much prize money and twice the ranking points than they got for the Eastbourne 50k Final at the start of the month.
