Hev's game looks in fine fettle, mph on 1st serve is massively down though, no more than 90 average.

Some very good (on Errani's serve), some lackadaisical (on her own serve), see's Hev in a good spot overall
*5-3

Errani looks to have strained, or cracked a rib possibly

Ouch!
From *40-0, Heather can't convert any of seven set points on her own serve. Errani takes a second break point.
5-4*

But Heather closes out the set by breaking Errani again.
Errani clearly injured now; definitely seemed to happen mid-match in that eighth game. Heather was ahead at that point. Sara has fought through being seemingly hobbled before, memorably once in a Roland Garros SF. Beware the wounded lion.
Can Hev take advantage, put this one away?
6-3

Took the first break point. 6-4 Hev

Exactly like McHale, Heather herself says that hardcourts are her favourite surface, while statistics says clay...

www.tennislive.net/wta/heather-watson/

In both cases, I agree with the stats.

It is still very wild from Hev though, completely random unforced errors on both wings flowing with high regularity. I can't remember her often unravelling like this.
Very ragged play, and Errani just says 'thank you very much,' as she is gifted the second set.
6-4 3-6
