Week 15 - ITF ($25K) - Obidos, Portugal Carpet

Ace Ventura · Tennis legend

Think play must have stopped in the Freya match, it was 3-3 last I checked and each game was going pretty long.

RedSquirrel · Satellite level

There will definitely be play tomorrow as they have announced they will move indoors with transport provided if it is raining.

RedSquirrel · Satellite level

Matches moved indoors as expected, which resulted in start time being put back from 9.30 to 10.15 but play still doesn't seem to have started.

Edit: start now put back to 11.15

Freya takes the first set and breaks at the beginning of the second. 7-5 *1-0

This could be a long day for Freya with her R32 match to complete, potentially the R16 match in the afternoon and her doubles match to finish off the day this evening.

Freya got another break to take the score to 4-0. But since then there have been 3 long deuce games which she could do without and which she has lost. *4-3

RedSquirrel · Satellite level

Freya has had enough of deuce games and breaks to love to win 7-5 6-4. smile

She's back on court to face the 4th seed Savinykh after the next match on court 3.

Meanwhile, over on court 1 the R32 match to decide Katie S's next opponent is only just starting.

There was a retirement after 4 games so Swan opponent should be relatively fresh. Freya opponent played yesterday so will probably be at an advantage. Boulter obviously lost a set yesterday, but interestingly, her opponent drooped a set to a Portuguese wildcard where she was 1/50 to win. For context, another wildcard who was the same size underdog (10/1), lost her first round match 6-0 6-1.

I see there has been a retirement before the start of the Rodionova-Lanca second round match. Not sure which one but it would be annoying from Maia's perspective if it was the former.

Ah, fair enough. I was just going off Google. Their live scores mustn't be working as it just said retirement with no reference to any score so assumed it hadn't started.

Boulter recovers from 0-2 to take the first set 6-4. *0-1 at the start of the second set. Freya starting soon and think Swan is due later today.

RedSquirrel · Satellite level

Swan is playing now. Lost the first set 2-6. 1-0* at the start of the second.

RedSquirrel · Satellite level

All doubles matches have been cancelled again.
