Well, they are reporting Brit Fed Cup news.
Because ******** Nastase got his ban reduced on appeal - fine doubled
The International Tennis Federation (ITF) said a ban was "appropriate" but cut it by eight months, so he can attend events from 23 April 2018 and work at them from 23 April 2020.
The ITF also increased Nastase's fine from $10,000 to $20,000.
But the former world number one can still be involved in Grand Slam events and ATP or WTA Tour events as they fall outside ITF jurisdiction.

There is no emoticon.

Poland & Latvia each win their doubles to clinch their ties 2-1
Serbia won both singles, and thus their tie, but look like losing the doubles.

GBR vs Portugal

Scheduled as: 

Heather Watson, WR74  vs Francisa Jorge WR 796

Johanna Konta   WR11 vs Maria Joao Koehler WR 747

Katie Boulter / Anna Smith vs Jorge and Koehler

 

Should be straightforward (fingers crossed)

Hev's match due to start shortly.......

According to a British tennis tweet, the match can be watched on facebook. Sadly it doesn't let you watch without logging in, and I'm not on facebook:

you can watch Heather live now in Estonia as we play Portugal on our Facebook page : www.facebook.com/britishtennislta/videos/1868655823147538/

Portuguese tennis can't be that strong if they can only summon 2 players who are not still in juniors.

Anyway what was that about slams being out of ITF jurisdiction. So who has direct jurisdiction over slams. If a player behaves terribly in a slam, is there a governing body that can ban them from the next 3?

To be fair, this is more like the score Heather *should* have posted.
