Did Harriet pick up a niggle during WTT? She was with the squad the whole time but didn't play a number of matches towards the end of the tour, and the team were putting out doubles players in singles over her for a few ties.
Fantastic turn around from Harriet, and at 0-3 down in the second set an extremely unlikely looking one too, as noted above! Great to see a GB comeback!
So two wins in the end for our women. Babos up next for Harriet.

Good for both Heather and Harriet. I think this top level of ITF is where both should concentrate at present and try to build up some wins and confidence. US open qualies will be a good test too.
