Harriet next plays either the 11th seed S.Aoyama, who Harriet lost to 5 years ago in Nottingham, or J.Lu the 13th seed.

No. This was the FQR. She's qualified already!

Six qualifiers ( and one LL it appears).

And I believe that is 18 points ..........

Wow, that is impressive. Especially as she seems to have struggled with the 1st service %.

Qualifying for main draw WTA, yay

Yes, 18 points for qualifying. Another 30 if she wins her next match.

Not exactly the draw of choice ( there was a WC in there for the qualifiers ). But still go, Harriet !

Harriet is first up on centre court at 5pm local time; coverage on BT Sport2 starts at 10am BST.

Live rankings have Harriet and Gabi both on 149 points at world #307 and #308 respectively; here's hoping they can both push past their CHs and on towards the top 200 over the weeks ahead :)

Was 0-5 down, now broken back to 2-5...

It's good for Harriet to test herself in this way, but I'm glad she's dropping back to 25ks for Woking & Chiswick - she's never won one and has no singles titles since 2014, so a 25k title seems like a good next step for her.

Always good to watch and certainly a fighter :)

Up a break in the decider, 4-2*

This could be a potentially momentous match for this generation of players.
None of Harriet's peer group has ever come through WTA qualifying to reach the main draw: Dunne, Boulter, Christie, Taylor, Swan - none of them have managed it yet.
But, if Harriet can do it here, and break the mould, surely the others will believe that this is within their compass too.

Come on Harriet!!!

 Didn't Katy D qualify for Edgbaston a few years ago? I remember watching in person when she lost to Camila Giorgi on a retirement in R1.

 

Well done Harriet!!biggrin

And breaks again for *4-5 - Wang has fallen apart a bit, but Harriet pressing well and going for her shots :)
