Well done Heather - not easy playing an injured friend.

Heather up to 66 on live rankings; a win tomorrow puts her at 53. Go, Heather :)

She's now more than last year's IW 120 ranking points ahead of Naomi ( 941 to 807 ).

Great to see this stuff from all our top 3 and I can forget the increasing "mind the gap" for now given it's them increasing it.

All 3 will now certainly be well within the top 100 ( Heather and Naomi guaranteed about WR 80 ) come the French Open entry date so well and truly DAs with Jo almost certainly going to be seeded.

Who's the commentator? Trying to be neutral but a Garcia supporter by the sounds of it.

Vladimira (Vladka) Uhlirova - she's generally very good, knows all the players games, and loves every second with a passion that comes through

Edit: Name spelling

Dominant win for Heather, even if it was against a restricted opponent.

As with her previous two WTA finals Heather faces a much lower ranked opponent than those she has beaten to get there. Flipkens is in a different class to those opponents though, and anyone who beats JoKo these days must be playing well.

Nice of Heather to mark Mother's Day by getting Mum a nomination for WTA breakthrough coach of the month.

Anyone know if the final on TV?

BT Sport showed the semi final but no sign of it in the schedules.

Yes bit of  tennis fest today, thank goodness DC didn't go to a 5th rubber!!

If Hev wins today I think she becomes the first British player since Sue Barker to win 3 WTA titles (Jo Durie only won 2 despite reaching no. 5). Is this correct?

Anyway good luck Hev!!

Yes, I've been hoping I'll get the chance to use that one tonight! wink Jo Durie and Anne Hobbs won 2 each, Annabel Croft, Sara Gomer, Monique Javer and Clare Wood 1 each. Sue won 11 - she had picked up 3 by 1975 and won her last 3 in 1979(x2) and 1981.
