Nerves seem to be getting the better of Katie this match. Loses her serve and the set to 0 on a double fault.

6-3 to Bonaventure

Katie has nearly doubled her DF count for the tournament in that set. Has to get more first serves in.

That first serve percentage can be so very important in women's tennis, with players often able to launch against the second service and at least immediately get ahead in the rally.

C'mon Katie !

First set gone 3-6 :(
Katie heavily outranked here, of course, but hopefully she can shake off her nerves (the DF count isn't helping) and stage a fight-back...

As she seems so gleefully keen to prove every prediction I ever make wrong...

I don't think she has much chance if this turns into a test of stamina.

Nearly broke again, but alas it is 2-3*

The first serve percentage is a lot better in this set.

That's more like it Katie!!!

Brilliant set of tennis to take it 6-3.

What a contrast to the first set in terms of service stats. Only lost three points on serve throughout that second set.

Come on Katie - keep fighting. No pressure as the Belgium player is the big favourite.

Taking another one for the team...

As the match enters a second hour, you'd have to favour the older, more experienced player to last longer, and hold her nerve better in critical moments.
