Interesting too, that in the SF Katy will play the Omani woman who received the one LL spot into the main draw, and who has just taken out the #1 seed. All credit to her! (and repeating the addicts comment)

QF: DUNNE, Katy (GBR) 4 277 beat POZNIKHIRENKO, Ganna (UKR) 5 279 CH=278 13/11/17 7-6(4) 7-5

QF: DUNNE, Katy (GBR) 4 277 vs AL NABHANI, Fatma (OMA) LL 550 (CH:362 April 14)

 


Having thought a few weeks ago that Katy had ended her season and was going to drop when last year's SF points came off, this has been a very encouraging turn of events. Funnily enough, the player al Nabhani lost to in the FQR was former world junior no. 4 Bolsova Zadoinov, who went on to lose in R1 to the top seed al Nab. has just beaten.

1st set, F (=al-Nabhani) serving first, K 2nd ... hold - F breaks - K breaks back - hold - hold - hold - K breaks - F breaks back - K rebreaks - F breaks back again - hold - hold. So no player managed to follow up a break with a hold and it's tiebreak time ...

0-0*
*1-0
*2-0
3-0*
3-1*
*4-1
*4-2

Changeover

Great news to wake up to - Katy takes the second set 6-3 and the match.
Just the one break of serve in that set.

Excellent - all points defended only way is up the rankings now.

SF: DUNNE, Katy (GBR) [4] 277 beat AL NABHANI, Fatma (OMA) LL 550 (CH:362 April 14) 7-6(4) 6-3

F: DUNNE, Katy (GBR) [4] 277 vs GARCIA-PEREZ, Georgina (ESP) [2] 238 (CH:179 May 17)

Garcia-Perez has had a comparatively serene week so far - only her first round match was more than two sets. The final will be a good test of Katy's game and standard now, and the prize, a further 20 points to lift the winner to 50 for the week, will be a very welcome rankings boost for either.

It was a case of who could hold their service rather than who could break service, 12 breaks of service in a match of 22 games.

Pity though clearly a very good week for Katy overall.

For now her CH 258 and that top 250 'wall' remain but she has that big window in the first few months of 2018. Indeed she has next week in India too.

Shame for Katy.

Garcia Perez is the REALLY tall girl who was beaten by Harriet this year, in R1 at Surbiton, 6-4, in the third. (I was cheering SO loudly - quite embarrassing really - but the Spanish contingent was quite loud too and needed cancelling out a bit).

But a very good week for Katy, as said above.

Yup. 6' 1½'' (or 1m 87cm if you prefer)
