Both the Haja Clart match, and Muzzarenka's were highly entertaining, quality fare. Well done all

Only saw the first set but blinkin' brilliant. Harriet SO miffed Cabal by serving winners against him and keeping cool when under attack. And Jay was bouncing around beautifully.
And so we've got a guaranteed finalist....

Yes should be a late afternoon Sunday final. I think many here were dreaming of that

I only saw the first set of Harriet and Jay, but when I got home I caught the last game of Muzzarenka and then the beeb were kind enough to replay the end of the match.
I'm still amazed at how calm Harriet is under pressure. Brilliant result for the pair of them. And Jamie and Vika were pretty good too - SF could be a great match.

I though Clarke and Dart were fantastic yet again and thoroughly deserved there win. Jamie and Vika were a bit hot and cold.
If Jay and Harriet continue in this rich vein of form they will make the final.

indiana · Tennis legend

I still think that Jamie & Vika are more likely to come through, but it would be tremendous for Jay & Harriet to make the final.

After the way they played today, "Jarriets of Fire" might be more appropriate.

Oh, that's good, that's very good.

A report of sorts from the Beeb. Had no idea Jamie was suffering from sore knees! That said, Bruno & Ekaterina Makarova, the second seeds, gave Peya & Melichar a walkover into the semis. Is Bruno carrying a bit of an injury or is it the Russian girl?

Yes, Jamie's knee has been taped up for a little while now which is possibly a reason why he originally (reportedly) wasn't going to do the mixed.

Bruno is injured, alas.

Tried to watch both of the matches at once, along with doing various jobs.
So entertaining. Well done to all the Brits (and Vika...though I still don't like the shrieking!) - fabulous
