So of the Brits in the doubles only Heather and Buzarnescu are through to the QFs, Laura, the two Katies and Jo are all out.

QF: Heather Watson/ Mihaela Buzarnescu (GBR/ROU) 110 (41+69) vs Patricia Hon/ Dalila Jakupovic (AUS/SLO) 146 (95+51)

Just seen the running order for tomorrow and very surprised that Katie B is on court 1. I know Barty is #1 seed and Vekic is defending champion, but they made such a fuss about Stosur in that press release (I know they had to grant her one as a top20 WC) so seems strange to have that match as the only WTA one off centre. Pretty much every other country would have their own on centre court, BT usually just show centre court for their coverage and it will pretty much always be a random Uzbeki at the Tashkent Open, a little known Swede at Bstaad etc.

Hopefully Eurosport will show the Boulter-Stosur match (assuming it doesn't clash with the big one, which it may well after this scheduling).

In the doubles Laura and Hao-Ching Chan [4] have lost to Falconi and Cabrera in two TBs 7-6(6) 7-6(1) cry

Heather and Buzarnescu have however put out the top seeds 1-6 6-2 10-4 which should give her confidence a further boost. smile

 That's a good fightback. Heather + were getting a real hammering early on when I looked

Katie just started vs Stosur. Sam doesn't have the best record on grass, with it not being the best surface for her heavy topspin game.

 Sure is. Leading by 8 aces to 1, and the percentages are good too.
