Week 2 - Australian Open, Women's Qualifying Singles - Melbourne, Australia - Hard
Permalink  

As already noted by Status Quo in the Road thread, these are good draws first up, the GB players are the higher ranked in every match up, even if close to be sure. 

Note for the rankings, these are current today from the WTA site. The AO site has last week's rankings; Savinykh has fallen 25 places this week. 

QR1: Samantha MURRAY SHARAN (GBR) 217 vs Yue YUAN (CHN) 221=CH

QR1: Naiktha BAINS (GBR) 200 vs Valeria SAVINYKH (RUS) 205 (CH:99 April 12)

QR1: Harriet DART (GBR) 169 vs Elitsa KOSTOVA (BUL) 194 (CH:130 Sept 16)

By the sounds of it not sure if they'll be playing today. Air quality very bad.

Bad day at the office for Naiktha. Lost 2 and 2.

Harriet on court now, broken but has now broken back, already had a retirement due to conditions.

Harriet's taken the first set, 6-4

Only saw the back end of that set but some nice hitting

They exchanged breaks so nothing dramatic but then Harriet took the last 4 games. Not watching but hoping she has been working on her serve as it really is stunting her.

Now a break up in the 2nd and held serve so fingers crossed.

Very neat, very controlled. Convincing win.

Well done, Harriet.

Well done Harriet. I thought she might be the one not to be over affected by the adverse conditions. (Out of all of our players)
