Battle of the Konta's!
Clay H2H looks bad for Hev - the key seems to be to lose the first set!

R1: Johanna KONTA (GBR) 27 [4] vs, Anett KONTAVEIT (EST) 91 (CH 85 01/2016)

R1: Heather WATSON (GBR) 84 vs. Christina MCHALE (USA) 64 (CH 24 08/2012)
H2H 1-3
2013 Poitiers, France - $100K - Hard - CM[6] - R32, HW won 2-6 7-5 6-4
2011 Charleston, SC, USA - Premier - Green Clay - HW(Q) - R56, CM won 5-7 6-3 7-6(3)
2011 Rome, Italy - Premier 5 - Clay - CM[q16] - QR2, CM won 2-6 6-1 6-3
*2008 Junior Fed Cup, Mexico - Clay - CM won 2-6 2-6
*Junior Result

Good draws. Winner of Jo's match plays Falconi/Lucic-Baroni; winner of Hev's plays Maria/Kovinic. If both keep winning, they meet in the QF.

You would expect matches between Heather and Christina McHale to be long matches and their head to head backs that up.

I remember ( wow, 2011, time flies ) Heather very emotional after the Charleston 2011 match slipped away.

I remember that one too indiana.

I can see them both making QF which would be really fun - hope they manage to do it!

Mmm. Yes, it was: I can't explain how sad it is to see Heather leave push through the crowds to leave the court & sit under a palm tree and cry. https://twitter.com/TheSliceTweets/status/54984539545673730


But, reading the thread back quickly, I did find this, which roused me from that sadness:

Will Mchale continue her run tonight against Jelena J? Probably not as I have placed my 1st online bet ever on her doing so !!!


To which came the solemn reply:

Unfortunately she didn't - JJ handed out a 2 & 0 thrashing!


 Lesson learned
