She got the second seed...with either Arina Rodionova or promising Australian Maddison Inglis in R2.

R1: [Q] Freya CHRISTIE (GBR) 396 vs. [2] Lin ZHU (CHN) 194 [CH=107, 05/2015]

Tough draw but I imagine Freya will be relishing the challenge and will give it a good go :)

Freya's up next.

Plays a much easier-looking No2 Seed than last week. On paper a rough draw, but I think she should be aiming to beat a seed or two at at least one tournament during her trip down under...

Here's hoping...

Freya was 5-2, I think

But it came all the way back to 5-5.

She then broke again and is serving for the match - again.

That was touch and go, that set, but a brilliant result for Freya - taking the TB 7-6(4)

Well done !

She won 7-6(4), but only half-hearted congratulations, and some concern, that she had such a terrible day on particularly second serve. She served for the match at 5-2, 5-4, and 6-5, and was broken each time. A total of 7 DFs, with no aces; and she won only 3 from 19 points on second service.

I've previously wondered whether Freya can sometimes shy away from the finishing tape; and this seemed doomed to turn into a heap of yippety-doo-dah at one point, when it apparently could have been a routine win.

Still, the draw opens up. Next victim, Arina Rodionova is ranked around 100 places lower than today's casualty, and is in poor form. I'd make Freya a strong favourite.

Brilliant result (not quite career best scalp which stands at 170) against the second seed; well done Freya :D
