Saw a bit of all those matches and the scores were very fair - very one-sided matches.

First time I'd seen Bilchev play (who's the only junior in that list).

Extremely good at taking the ball out of the air, in a drive volley, looked rock solid on those, and aggressive too. But - like many youngsters - she hit a few good forehands, but overall was too passive, not enough intent, a little slow, often not quite in position......

I havent seen Kylie play for quite some time. She didn't play quite how I remembered her playing, lacked the  intensity. Of course she would have been playing juniors back then and was dominating her age groups but then was out for some time with injuries. i believe shes recently turned 18 so  it will be interesting to see how she transitions to the womens tour.

 The two commentators yesterday were Abigail Johnson and Jenny Drummond doing alternate matches - I presume the same two are doing it today

Good to see Liv back on court playing singles. Pushed Freya all the way yesterday, and beat Tanysha 1 & 0 today.

Eliz Maloney has just recovered from a set and 1-4 down to level the match against Lissey. MTB about to start.
Lots of unforced errors from Lissey.

Lissey just about gets over the line, 6-2 5-7 10-8, but nearly blew her lead in the MTB

Tanysha did better today, only losing to Lissey 1 & 3
Some interesting line-ups today, and I'm looking forward to some of these matches

 I think three more will be one-sided. Only potential close ones are Freya-Eliz and Nadia-Kylie imho.

Only just saw that Court 2 has a window. Is mixed lighting considered a potential disadvantage?
