After a bit of a shakey start, they are looking like a really good doubles pair now. Some great play in the final set.

I really enjoyed watching that match. Heather is brilliant at the net - she has fantastic fast reactions. What a great's day's tennis, but exhausting! Good job we've got a day off tomorrow.

The girls have been putting pressure on, but not taken any of the several break points they've had in the opening 2 return games

*1-2

This grunt from the other team is so obnoxious.

Decent pairing though, the Chinese team. 4-2 ahead in the final set , deuce, a break now seems vital!

Unlucky girls, a good performance against top opposition. Hopefully enables Heather to leave Wimbledon with some better emotions, and Harriet has a real chance in the mixed where the field continues to collapse with withdrawals.
