Daria must be playing well if she's just beaten Leaky.

Very good from Jo

That's 100 points for reaching the QF, which in Jo Konta world is a non counter ( 16th counter 105 ), so better keep winning then. And, with Kuznetsova defending Sydney 2016 title points and losing in R2, if Jo does reach the SF she will be back up to her CH 9.

Didn't expect it to be so one-sided but even then she wasn't very clutch today, but was a class above Daria. Surprised how poor the Ozzie was.

Tough one next.

Jo wins the first set 6-3.

Not the most exciting set of tennis, Kasatkina looks a bit flat after yesterday's big win. Jo pretty much in control without having to be at her best and I feel she could up her level if needed.

Didn't see the second set as I was watching Dan Evans instead, but a good effort by Jo to turn it around from 2-4 and get it done in straight sets.

Impressive stuff.
A resurgent Genie next (back-to-back straight set wins over Zhang Shuai, Domi & Pav), who gave Jo lots of trouble in the only previous meeting, taking the return early, and taking lots of chances with it.

QF: Johanna KONTA (GBR) [6] 10 defeated Daria KASATKINA (RUS) 26 6-3 7-5
SF: Johanna KONTA (GBR) [6] 10 v. (WC) Eugenie BOUCHARD (CAN) 49 (CH 5, Oct. 2014)
> H2H 0-1
> 2016 Wimbledon - GS - Grass - JK [16] - R64 - Bouchard by 6-3 1-6 6-1

Really hope she beats Bouchard. Not least because she's not one of my favourite players. Go on Jo!
