Week 36 - ITF (W15) - Sajur, Israel - Hard

Ace Ventura · Tennis legend

Freya lost 3-6 3-6.

FWIW, Freya was actually a bigger betting favourite than Maia in their respective matches. Harder for them to gauge at this level, but Maia's opponent was 11/2, Freya's was 7/1. Could have had a cracking double there - 51/1.

Another gentle draw for Jodie. Tiff's opponent, Victoria Muntean beat Freya last week, and only lost in the SF to Snigur who beat Maia easily in the final.
Lissey's potential opponents have just gone into a third set.

Jodie wins the first but not as straightforward as i thought it might be. She only won it 3 breaks to 2, 6-4

Tiff 0-3 down to Muntean, less of a surprise.

Jodie wins, Tiff is a set and a break down, and Lissey is an early double-break up

Michael D · All-time great

Jodie makes it through now, winning the second set on 2 breaks to 1.

R16: Jodie BUURAGE (GBR) [1] 270 def Alija MERDEEVA (RUS) [Q] UNR/850 6-4 6-3

Jodie will face the winner of Lissey's match next. In this Lissey has gone a promising *3-0 up against the 6th seed.

Tiff is currently 2-6 *1-3 down

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

No real surprise that Tiff lost to V Muntean.

2-6 2-6

Michael D · All-time great

Lissey breaks to win on her 4th MP. A strong performance from her, she didn't face a single BP the whole match. She will be encouraged. Will be a good test tomorrow to see where Jodie is with her comeback.

R16: Jodie BURRAGE (GBR) [1] 270 def Alija MERDEEVA (RUS) [Q] UNR/850 6-4 6-3
R16: Alicia BARNETT (GBR) 673 vs Maya TAHAN (ISR) [6] 620 (CH:587) 6-2 6-3
R16: Tiffany WILLIAM (GBR) 858 lost to Victoria MUNTEAN (FRA) 677 (CH:435) 2-6 2-6

QF: Jodie BURRAGE (GBR) [1] 270 vs Alicia BARNETT (GBR) 673
