Hmm... watch to see if the second American Civil War kicks off tonight, or if Laura wins a tennis match... Come on Laura!

I guess someone tripped over the lead - the feed has dropped out. Bright start by Laura to get to *4-0, then a bad service game and some errors meant it is back to *4-2

Looks like tricky wind...lots of problems with tosses and shanks from both players...chairs being blown over...

Now back on serve .......... I don't think I can follow this live any longer, I'll just wait for the result.

4-1, 5-2... ... ... 5-7 UE City.
Wind a big factor, but, in truth, this could be any Laura match from ~2014 onwards in the fundamental display of things.

I know Laura had got relatively over the serving yips but Laura serving in a big wind doesn't sound like a match made in heaven !!

It's very poor quality play all round.
But, the wind has died down a bit, Laura's no lnonger overturning her chair at each break!
And, Laura's managed to get a break back and nudge ahead - the court is still too short for her, but Elie is doing next to nothing to capitalise except waiting for errors.
If Laura can hold hersled together she can force a third set.
When did she get that weird flicked flourish on the finish of her forehands? It doesn't help.
5-7 4-3*

Love hold with some really good serves, hitting the corners, lefty swinging out wide!
5-7 5-4*

Great point, Sub-club-Sunday-social-hit-and-giggle-point, great point, Sub-club-Sunday-social-hit-and-giggle-point, great point, Sub-club-Sunday-social-hit-and-giggle-point, great point, Sub-club-Sunday-social-hit-and-giggle-point, great point, great point SET!
5-7 6-4

Two good points in a row will just about do it.

She did deserve it. At least she is trying to win points. Elie is very passive indeed.
Come in Laura! Focus now.

Some cracking service returns in that game, interspersed with some really awful shots. I hope the good side comes out on top !

Or, concede a soft break.
