Good stuff from Heather here. Would be nice to get a QF.

Well done Hev.

BBC still not found room to report this MD WTA win though. Norrie/Evans equivalent ATP R32 results (W1 L1) have had their own story up for >7 hours


And now a revision of the Evans/Norrie story has inserted two brief paragraphs on Jev.

Coincidence? Hell NO! I changed the world!!! I WAS the change I wanted to see in the world etc etc dissolves in aphoristic ecstasy



 I thought you're just interested in maintaining the status quo though?

Yes undoubtedly the most radical status quo I've come across.... wink

I wouldn't trust the BBC as far as I could spit a rat. All they're interested in is "Trending".

The BBC article https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/51088232 still claims "Elsewhere, Evans' ATP Cup team-mate Cameron Norrie lost 7-6 6-2 to Brazilian qualifier Thiago Monteiro in the second round of the ASB Classic in Auckland. "

I thought Cameron Norrie lost in the first round.

Ah, so Heather slipped into the doubles as an Alt. Another win vs Hayley Carter but tough one next.

L16: (Alt) Arantxa Rus (NED) & Heather Watson CR 293 (175+118) beat Hayley Carter & Luisa Stefani (USA/BRA) CR 132 (67+65) by 7-6(3) 6-2

QF: (Alt) Arantxa Rus (NED) & Heather Watson CR 293 (175+118) vs (2) Peng Shuai & Zhang Shuai (CHN/CHN) CR 80 (70+10)

Break points for Hev.

Fiona saves the first with an excellent serve.
Hev loses the second with a tight forehand
But gets the third, passing Fiona at the net (who'd come in on a wing and a prayer)

*5-4

 

Add: Had her chances but ended up getting broken back, 5-5

Phew. Served for the set twice and was broken back both times. Tight tie-break too, but Hev edges it 7-5
