Second set Lissey goes an early break down and doesn't recover. She's gone an early break down in the final set too, despite having the intial game point, and she looks to be running out of steam here. 6-4 2-6 *0-2

Went a double break down at 0-3*, got one break back for "1-3, and the last 3 games have gone with serve ( last one Lissey to love ).

3-4*

 And absolutely delighted that my early third set write off should be proved so wrong! A totally unexpected, really wonderful fightback! biggrin

Brits do like their carpets 

Especially when they don't get soggy !

That Ozgen pretty much makes a career out of these Portuguese carpets. Great win for Alicia.

Beth's doubles results haven't been great recently.
However she seems to play better singles in the second half of the season like Liam Broady

Serving doesn't seem to be an advantage on this carpet. After holding her opening serve to love, Beth is now 4-2* after five consecutive breaks of serve - the last two both to love !

Two holds, and two more breaks to love - Beth takes the first set 6-4 and will serve first in the second
