I really hope it's the start of something good but there have been too many false dawns - Abanda in the next round will be the true test


It will indeed but putting away a top 300 player that quickly, holding serve throughout and serving as many aces as dfs (2 of each) must be good for confidence given how much trouble she's been having putting away opponents recently. I was (pleasantly) shocked when I looked again and saw that she'd won that quickly!

I fervently want to believe that Laura will understand how she did this today, and use that rediscovered knowledge from now on.
I want to believe that...

 Very well done today, an excellent result, and everything ostensibly suggests a good performance too.

Higher winning percentage on 2nd than 1st is a good sign! :)

Although it's over a year since I've seen her, Laura R's opponent, Miss Rosatello, has a game far more suited to clay than hard courts.

Nice work from Ms. Broady to start with, and then blotted the copy book immediately at the start of set two, 6-0 0-1*

But then doesn't lose another game to win 6-0, 6-1. Couple of impressive results hopefully Katie can make it a hat trick.

Naomi reveses Laura R's impressive set score 6-0 6-1
4 sets for Brits in singles so far, 2 games lost in total.
No pressure then for Ms. Boulter later!

Well I said that I considered two R1 wins here would be not bad, while hoping for three.

Two wins so far and 24 games to 2 is not bad at all !!

Katie has taken the first set 6-4. Maria is a very good player, a win would be a terrific result.

Tight second set, with 5 breaks of serve. Unfortunately Maria got the last break in the 11th game, and then served out the set.
