Second serve ace sets up three set points against the WR 7. The crowd are stunned.

Never seen a better set of tennis from a female Brit.
Or, at least, my memory is failing me if I have.

Breaks to start the second set.
The crowd really trying to lift Vinci are uproariously cheering every point the Italian wins.
It's almost surreal.

UE from JO, and there is a murmur of disbelief, or hope, around the stadium, and a big smile from Roberta
Crowd then, in hostile Fed Cup mode, cheer a Jo DF; that sets up BP, which is taken.

Similar to the Larsson match. Dominant first set, couldn't possibly keep up that standard, and the opponent gets a foot hold.
A run of 4 consecutive breaks at the start of set 2, which Vinci snaps to lead for the first time.
Important service game coming up.

Great character from Jo.
Holds, breaks again, blunts the Vinci recovery.
Standing tall against the complete silence that greets any of her many excellent shots.
