Nevertheless, the top seeds wrap up a routine win against the unseeded locals shortly thereafter. 6-0 6-2

Katie lost in straight sets

 

In their first meeting, KB tossed in so many errors that she handed the match to her opponent. Fair chance it was a similar story here.

 Katie was second in every stats category - 36 points to 64 says it all cry

 This sounds like a slide from the performances that earned her a deserved slam MDWC. Let's hope she can rediscover form.

 I'm not sure I see it that way.

Allie Kiick was a real high flyer, ranked 137 at age 19 and then had cancer and, separately, four knee surgeries which kept her out of competition for over 2 years.

She's now back and fully fit, thank goodness, so - although Katie may well have had a poor game, no idea - it's not surprising that Allie's zooming through the draws.

Laura R off to a torpid start, 0-1*

(Edit: with two DF in that opening game, too)

Recovers immediately.
Zarazua has had 7 BP already, despite Laura serving at 71.4%. The second serve is getting destroyed (16.7% won).
She'll need to keep that 1st serve % up if that all continues. Hope to break again, and build pressure in the other direction.
2-1*

This event is listed as being covered by the USTA service on their website, but it appears not; or, perhaps, not yet this week. Maybe it begins for the later rounds, and if Ms. Robson prevails, we'll see her then.

Laura 3-2*

She's fairly strong odds on favourite on bet365 at 2/5.

A bit ominously MTO at 5-6* with Laura just having been broken ( now 1 break to 2 ). Odds removed on bet365.

Got back underway with a 22 point game in which Laura had 5 BPs in all and saved 3 SPs but not a 4th.

5-7

Bit quiet here. Everyone go off to find what money they could afford to put on Zarazua when I mentioned the odds? Shameful behaviour! 

Anyway 3 breaks to start the 2nd set with Laura the net loser in that.

5-7 1-2*

C'mon, Laura !

At least you can get out of Las Vegas sooner... except she's still in the doubles...
This is serious... I'm gonna need the strong stuff: a double Dandelion & Burdock - whoa!
