Well there was a late start, but play is well underway, with four of the eight second round matches already completed. Lissey and liv's doubles opponents both lost their singles, so they could start their doubles in under an hour if a court becomes available.

Alicia and Olivia take the first set 6-1

QF:- Alicia Barnett (GBR) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR740 (374+366) def Momoko Kobori (JPN) / Ayano Shimizu (JPN) CR743 (376+367) 6-1 6-2

SF:- Alicia Barnett (GBR) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR740 (374+366) v Barbara Gatica (CHI) / Rebeca Pereira (BRA) CR612 (306+306)

Gatica and Pereira are an established pair, and have been playing together for over three years, winning one W25 and six W15 titles (all but one on clay)
Of course, Liv and Lissey have a whole bunch of doubles titles (13 for Liv and 9 for Lissey)
