Superb. Martincova was pretty poor but Kiki was pulling out some good tennis. The girls really held their nerve and stayed strong. Well done! Very impressed by their response to losing 3 points in a row from *8-5 when it looked like it might slip away.

 

Jo's singles and Harriet/Heather in doubles are only Brits in action tomorrow.

 You might want to check this but one listing shows  Harriet is playing doubles with Naomi Broady and  not Heather.

Just a mistake by PaulM.
See the full draw I posted on page 9 of this thread - Naomi is partnering Harriet - and that still stands according to the WTA website. They are fourth match on court 2.

You could read it as Jo, Harriet and Heather are all playing tomorrow, not necessarily as playing in a team together.

You could, but Heather isn't on today's order of play.

It's a pity they didn't put one of the other matches involving the Brits on today as well, but there are two men's doubles and two men's singles matches being played so still British interest.

Are you just watching on Unibet Paul (if at all)? At least the option is there, and it's multi camera rather than the usual fixed stream, but still not great how there's no better coverage, since it is on WTA TV.


 How many courts are WTA TV covering at Nottingham? When WTA TV shut down my subscription they categorically assured me Prime would offer exactly the same coverage.

Times reporting Fran suffered full body cramps for second time in past couple of months after the match. Her body struggling at this sustained level. Sounds like she hopes to be ok for Wimbledon but may not play next week. Tough for her but hope she's ok.

Jo 3-1*

Harriet and Naomi, playing so well, go up 6-3 5-4 *40-0. But they can't take it, not two break points in the following game and are now *5-6 down.

Had points for a tiebreaker in the second but lose the deuce point for the third game in a row. Hold on tight!

Lose it 10-7

Should have had it! Just one big serve from Naomi would have done the trick but they just couldn't sneak over the line. What a shame.

Well when your up 4 match points and you play a stupid shot because you don't think that one matters then things can escalate.
