Wow Katie - fantastic! Wonder if she has a bit of the Robbo gene for upping her game at the majors?

Bit disapointed with Cavs grass season in all honesty, not that she has done badly at all I hasten to add but Im sure she would have hoped for more to show of it.

Hard for Webbers as well, certainly feel that Min was always going to be tough, but good effort from her and Lucy on taking sets.

'Will be very interested to hear what happened at 15-40 at 4-4* in the second. That's where the match turned'

It was so close If I remember correctly, Emily had a good chance to serve for the match on 15-40 but the passing shot was just wide... Grace then hit two absolute beauties which no one could have got and the momentum had changed. In my view Emily played as well as I have seen her for most of the first set and a half, but Grace just had that extra gear to keep Emily under pressure with deep and wide angled shots as the match wore on.

Small small margins....I am sure Emily would have served out at set and 5 4

Cheers Pat, sometimes you have to say too good.

Sounds like a tough one for Emily. Having just watch Heather win after a lucky net chord at 5-5 break point down in the 2nd set, we have seen plenty of evidence today of how such small margins can decide a match.
