Good luck to Hev for her next match(es). I'll be away for a couple of days with limited internet, so won't be on here, but hope to at least find results!

Heather is first up tomorrow, on court 14. She should win this one, but their past meetings suggest it could be very close.

Smitkova streaky, too many errors in first, but crushing it so far in the second

*0-3

Heather grinds out a very tough hold in the sixth game, and that seems to knock Smitkova a little. She starts to leak a few errors, and Heather really steps it up, playing great controlled aggressive tennis to go up *5-4

15-0
30-0
30-15
30-30
30-40

4 missed first serves from 30-0, got a little tight and made to pay for it. Frustrating.

5-5*

Survives to take it to a breaker from 15-30

Scrappy tiebreak from Smitkova, solid from Heather

She's through 6-4 7-6(3)

Should have closed it out, but did well to dig in and come through in straight sets.

Good win.

How many points is she defending from last year?

Well done Heather. Tough final match to qualify, but not impossible.

70 - MD as of right, and won one match to reach R64.

Good win, will be a step up in opposition for the final qualifying round though.

Heather is in deep trouble, calling an MTO with the score at 0-6, 0-3...
