To say the least, Jo & Eli are infrequent doubles exponents; they lose the first set to the Dutch pair that play doubles every event (and for Schuurs is her sole pursuit), 2-6

That win for Jo in singles was her first on tour since 17th August in Cincinnati R16

Excellent win for Jo :D
Fingers crossed Heather can find her 2015 form in Hobart :)

Good to see Jo get that win. Very tough 1st round.

Well done Jo - great start to the year.

I wonder when Hev found out she had a LL spot. 1st set not down to seeing the New Year in assuming she had a day off??

Well done Jo!
I didn't realise that Hev had a LL place until I looked at the Beeb text this morning. A tough opponent though.

Great Jo!

A little disappointing from Hev who beat Kontaveit at the end of last year but it was a late call up!

Two very ropey opening services from Johanna; serving at >85% but there's none of the usual penetration or placement.
Tomljanovic had chances for a deserved 0-3 lead, but Jo held on, 1-2*

Jo going to have to raise her game quickly.
2-3*, but has had 33 serves in only 3 games, saving 8/10 break points.

Jo is 4-5* down. Lost track of how many breaks there have been in a row

Seven breaks in only 9 games. Both have held just once, but then Tomljanovic holds again to serve out to love.
