Impressive again from Eliz, and her two points so far will move her inside the top 1100 when they go on in 10 days time. The fact she's beaten two players now ranked 566 and 626 suggests she has plenty of upward potential at this point in time which is good to see. And Eliz will get a further test of her upward credentials since she will take on the 2nd seed next in the QF, Ilona Ghioroaie (ROU) WR 482.
In the meantime Gabi is on court now too and *5-1 up first set.

Agreed. What a super tournament it has been for Eliz. Whatever happens in the next round she can hopefully take great encouragement from this and try to kick on. Ok it is the lowest level but how many times do we have these threads and they are all over on day one.
Good for Gabi to get time on court and winning some matches should help her confidence and her fitness levels.
Gabi managed to break and level the match at 5-5 after a long game - but the effort must have told, because she lost the next two games and the match, only winning one point.
