Fair play to Alice, pretty comfortable there.

That was a fairly unsubtle tank job I thought?

What's the prize money for winner/RU tomorrow? Seems odd not to give the 5k up for grabs here a proper go. But I guess it will mean more to one of the non-LTA supported girls

 Winner tomorrow gets 6k, finalist 4k (pounds) . I'm sure she gave it a proper go, it just didn't work out in her favour! Yes the money will go to the  non-LTA supported players who probably need it more. LTA  supported / PSP players get up to 80k in support . She's also done well these past few weeks being runner up in the first BT Premier, won at SGH last week , so I'm sure Jodie will be just fine money-wise

 Lissey B is the Tiebreak Tens champion. Beats Alice Gillan 10-8 . What a fight from Alice from 3-8 down though, shame to lose the last point with a df

Well done to Lissey for a good week. Well deserved, good reward as she was apparently involved in setting up the whole Progress Tour with Barry Fulcher. That prize money would definitely come in handy for her future tours, travelling etc

Shame Alice was so tight at the start, but she fought back well from *1-8 down and had a shot at 8-8* but just went wide after a good rally.

I've really enjoyed watching both Lissey and Alice this week, and hopefully the money helps Lissey out for when the tour is back up and running. Alice looks like she should be able to get into the top 600.

I had a quick look on Twitter and Google, but couldn't see anything official, but I'd be quite surprised if potential PRs received the lieu prize money.

She won't be using her PR to play in the US Open though:
www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/tennis/article-8535373/Boulter-not-play-Open-pandemic-amid-doubts-Kontas-participation.html

Order of play tomorrow from 11am:

Amelia B vs Erin (Div 1 final)
Jodie vs Katie B (Premier final)
Doubles final

I like Amelia's game. She's well in control here.

Is Erin the better player between the Richardson's? I think Eden's name was more on my radar a couple of years ago but she doesn't seem to be playing the domestic events?

 

Also enjoying Naomi C's commentary. She's very insightful and helpful she actually knows a lot about these players. Not the usual platitudes we hear.

 Completely agree with you about Naomi C

If anyone from BBC etc are listening, she's excellent - as you say, says things of real interest. 

Unlike Anna whoever, who was awful. Just inane comments saying nothing. And the bloke they have on often.

Katie B has got a bit of a cushion now. Jodie served for the match at 6-3 *6-5, but Boulter broke, won the TB, and has pulled away a bit in the decider.

3-6 7-6 *4-1.

Commentators mentioned there's talk of adding more domestic events after this initial period is over.

Amelia B confirmed she's playing SGH next week in her post match interview.

I missed the final set, so got the score from the LTA facebook page

"Katie fights back to beat Jodie Burrage 3-6, 7-6 (4), 6-2"
