That was a battle and a half, Harriet was playing catch up all through that tie break.

She was *4-3 up, but certainly chasing once broken again from that position.

It was 7-6(10), Harriet taking her 2nd SP after saving 9 SPs herself, ( 2 on return ).

The usual exchange of breaks to start the second set off, *1-1.

Phenomenal effort from Harriet to steal that set. Stayed very calm. Credit to Zhu for not falling away in this second though, she's not let it get into her head.

Harriet misses a break back point. Her resistance is finally starting to falter having had to work so hard to get to this point.

*3-5

Ha, she wins her next service game to love, including her first ace and the first game of the match that Zhu hasn't reached at least 30.

4-5*

I thought this was slipping away from her. Very long bathroom break between 2nd and 3rd sets, immediate break (although that's not really too significant), but then Zhu had a couple of game points, and thought she was maybe going to take control, but Harriet has come storming back here.

That's a cracking 3rd set comeback. Fair play, and really well done.
