If anyone wants to follow the live scores this evening go to www.tennisticker.de/aus/aus3089/sb.html - Emily is on at 10pm GMT, while Max is in the consolation event. Also of interest is that Joanna Garland has joined Emily in the quarters. She has or had an English base for some of the time, plays occasionally on the British Tour and has one British parent, but has opted to play for the country of her other parent (Taiwan/Chinese Taipei).
Max next up in the boys consolation, as DavidC said previously.
Ali and her partner Jule, up soon in the girls doubles QF's. They will be playing Chen (TPE) and Sato (JPN).
Then Max and his doubles partner Simon's match to follow after rest, against Ruusuvuori (FIN) and Vrbensky (CZE).
After Emily finishes her match with Xin Yu Wang which is currently being played she and Jodie will be playing Black (USA) and Olsen (NOR) in the girls doubles QF.
