Doesnt really happen though biggrin I would take two Brits playing in a QF any day. Opening rounds aren't so good though!

Didn't Bains and Raducanu meet in a final a couple of years ago?

Yep. Just before Christmas 2019. Katie S beat Katie B in another W25 final a couple of years before that, but can't think of too many more recent ones.

Looks like Katie B. has given Beth a walk over.

Yes, it's on the draw, and the order of play.

Good news for Beth before her doubles Sf

the addict · Tennis legend

They brought the doubles forward, and it's under way. Lissey and Lina lead.
Slow start from Jodie and Beth, and quickly 0-2* with one point on serve plus the gift of a double fault being all so far.

And now it's 0-3*, after a deciding point.

Anyone any idea if Katie B is injured or if she's withdrawn to go an sign into qualis or something somewhere else?
