Yep, she was definitely at US uni - I think Tennpar said she has recently graduated on a different thread, but not sure what her upcoming plans are. 

She and Grace had a really close match in last weeks final, Grace winning 10-8 in the MTB, and their odds are pretty much 50/50 tomorrow, so it could be another really close match. I'd love to see Holly make the final, but could be a long shot.

Grace vs Lily starts at 9.30am tomorrow on Centre Court. The men's is on Court 1 at the same time, so presumably the women will have the commentators and production value. Lily won 6-3 6-1 when they met in Glasgow earlier in the year, but hopefully Grace can push her a bit closer now that she has 7 succesive wins under her belt.

The Fast 4 doubles competitions start from noon across 4 courts.

Watching the final, errors in commentary and stats getting frustrating....firstly comment that piper probably won't have played players of miyazaki's standard before, yet they have already played each other before, and there are others I think in 25k itfs! Then the stats after set one showed piper 0/0 on break points.....but she had 40-15 and ad in one of her opponents service games. Then there is the umpire correctly pronouncing miyazaki with a first syllable as in me, but commentators persistently getting it wrong. If it wasn't already taken I might be the pedant....but impressed with miyazaki so far.

Emily and Lily have won the doubles event again, beating Spink and Staff 4-1 4-3(5) in the final. Not as strong a field as their first triumph in week 1, but another bit of silverware for them all the same.

I noticed that Lily Miyazaki had a Japanese flag on the score board during the BBC red button coverage so, is she Japanese or did she change her allegiance to GB like Choinski did :O?

 Lily is Japanese but has lived in GB for a substantial part of her life. Non-British players are permitted to take part in British Tour events.
