Nottingham basically passed me by today, but great to see Jo get a comfortable win, and hopefully she can back that up on Thursday and achieve consecutive victories in a tournament.

Good luck to the other GB girls competing tomorrow (I will be rooting for Hev in her singles match).

 They were in the original draw - and show on the official pdf as last direct acceptance with a CR of 441

There are Brits in action on four courts today. I'd be grateful if anyone could post when they have found streams - particularly for the doubles on courts 2 & 3

 Agree. A completely expected win. Anything less would have been a real downer frankly. Let's hope she can string a few comfortable wins together here to build her confidence.

 Me too but BBC appears to be covering WTA matches only on iPlayer. So far they've only covered centre court. LTA so far has just covered centre court but both ATP and WTA, on their YouTube account. Other than that, all courts appear to be available on certain betting sites. Jo's doubles match with Donna Vekic is the first match of Jo's I've been unable to view for some time.

It's not ideal. Katie and Harriet both have interesting, and fairly winnable matches (betting wise one is 50/50, the other is a slight underdog) against top 100 WTA players, so it will be a real shame if we're restricted to betting sites, while people outside the UK can watch them on far more convenient platforms.

It's good that there is a bit of BBC coverage, so everyone can watch the matches that they do show, but I'd have rather it was on Prime, or even just behind the Eurosport Player like in previous years.

Meanwhile at the Bol Open, they are streaming both centre and court 1 on their website. Why can't we?

I'll be switching to that as soon as this final RG QF is over.

Close set this. Katie saved some break points to keep her lead and then had 30-0* at 4-2.

Will serve for it at *5-4

Double faults on her first set point, but takes her second. Forehand looking big.
