Good stuff Fran. Another convincing win.

Jana Fett up next who beat a WC earlier. Interesting match. Jana had made a WTA semi final, cracked the top 100, and infamously had MP against Wozniacki at that AO Woz won, all by the age of 20/21, but she's kind of transitioned back to a 200-300 player these past couple of years, without any real notable layoffs either. Still reasonably young though, so could come again, but hopefully not until at least after this week biggrin

Maia and her Turkish partner won 7-6(3) 6-2

Maia is lowly ranked in doubles but if they continue to do well here her ranking should jump

 Intriguing story with Fett, I wonder if she was quite badly affected psychologically by the Wozniacki match? I remember tuning in in the early hours of the morning for that and as well as having MP she was 5-1 up in the 3rd. Doesn't seem to have been the same since.

Maia, currently 1422 in doubles, should gain about 250 places biggrin

I think Maia's doubles ranking is based purely on 4 single points for first round losses - her activity list on the ITF site shows her last doubles win was Oct 2018, and the last four results were June 2019 and May2019, which presumably haven't dropped off.

Not a good start from the British perspective with Katie retiring and Freya already a set and a break down and Fran here is 0-2

Yep, not a bad comeback biggrin

Should be a good chance to go a step further with Buyukakcay crashing out in R1. Potential QF opponents are currently into a deciding set.
