4th round looks winnable too! Where does this take her in the rankings? Strong possibility she will be the last Brit standing. Who would have predicted that?

I think it she'll be somewhere in the top 200.

Coco has also just won too, so that's another teenager through (although her win was less unexpected).

Brilliant attitude, confirming the promise she showed as a junior. The latter stages were particularly impressive as, having been in the zone for the middle part of the match (unsustainable) she was able to regroup once Cirstea started to turn things round.

Phenomenal.
The 2nd half of that 2nd set shoes me everything we need to know about Emma!

You won't see a better performance in the entire tournament from either side of the draw. World class! The passing shots were insane. There aren't enough superlatives. Take a bow, Emma!

Also, Ajla is a pretty similar opponent to Cirstea, both in game style and ranking...

In reaching the fourth round in  her first Grand Slam singles tournament  Emma has achieved something that Heather has failed to achieve in 39 Grand Slam singles tournaments.

Yeah looking at Tomjanovic's grand slam results, she's only made it beyond the 2nd round once before and that was Roland Garros 2014.

Both players must be looking at this match as an amazing opportunity to become a grand slam quarter finalist.

Amazing. Love the never say die attitude, and the way she resets after each point. Not afraid to go for her shots out wide, even when the opponent is coming to the net. Closing out that match wasn't easy at all. Mobility is key to her game, getting quickly to the ball. She's able to put pressure aside, somehow.

Absolutely incredible, she has the beating of most of the draw however If I was coaching her I'd be encouraging her to play more doubles, she seemed a bit nervy coming in.
