Jodie serving terribly (25.9%).
It doesn't matter. She won the four games in a row to leadv 5-2*
Then had 3 SP at 40-0* only for Suzy to win the next five points.
So, now, JAB serving for the set. *5-3
Suzy doesn't look to have done much wrong. Jodie Anna just dominated after the opening two games. SF: Suzy LARKIN (GBR) 677 lost to (Q) Jodie Anna BURRAGE (GBR) 1232 3-6 1-6
A first pro final for JAB F: (Q) Jodie Anna BURRAGE (GBR) 1232 v. Julia WACHACZYK (GER) [2] 354 > H2H 0-1 > 2017 Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt - ITF $15K - Hard - JAB(JE), JW[6] - R16 - Wachaczyk by 2-6 6-2 6-1
Brits are 1-4 against Wachaczyk in 2017. As well as Jodie's loss last week, she beat SBG twice and Laura S once, in the UK $15K's. Katie S won the second of her consecutive titles by defeating the German in the final, for our only success. Time to double that number.

Given that Jodie had only reached one ITF Pro QF before (lost to Harriet in Chiswick in 2015), this week has been quite a breakthrough - she hasn't dropped a set in the main draw on her way to the final either

Chuffed to bits for Jodie but definitely early doors for her, definitely one of a group of solid 99ers but some way off the performances of Destanee this week in mornington
