8-7*
Great stuff Manisha, up against an opponent, 400 places higher than her, takes the first set 7-6(7)

If she wins, we'll have an all Brit QF - the winner plays Ms. Swan

Excellent win for Katie after the struggle in R1; hopefully rustiness now shaken off in readiness for the QF :)
Great fight by Manisha; pity she couldn't quite get the win but good encouragement going forward....and we now don't have to be neutral in the QF!

I like Manisha's moxy.
I hope she gets another sustained period of form and fitness now to really maximise her potential - see if she can break top 500 for starters.
