the addict · Tennis legend

Harriet on court now (as seem to be Brits everywhere). *2-1, no holds yet

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Harriet had 3 BPs and made two howlers (and one 'regular' mistake)

Given the addict's point, that the object here is to break every time, because you'll only be broken yourself next game, it was a real shame and might cost her....

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Harriet won two games on the trot ! (partly helped by a really poor one from Caty).

But couldn't serve out the set at *5-4

Now 5-5

PaulM · Tennis legend

Traded breaks again, 3 doubles in that game! Tiebreak.

indiana · Tennis legend

Harriet broke again for *6-5 and was again broken back to 30. 8 breaks in all the first set. TB ...

PaulM · Tennis legend

Harriet did try to attack the tiebreak but just misses out. That final point she absolutely went for it but I think was nervous about taking the smash in the air with the wind and let it bounce. She tries to stay on the front foot in the rally after that but eventually goes wide.

(5)6-7

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

45 points apiece in that set.

Which about sums it up.

Pretty windy, causing both of them problems.

But Caty got the points that counted in the TB

Jan · Hall of fame

Thanks! I'm picking up odd scores, but struggling to follow!
