Peter too · Tennis legend

Fran is really struggling to hold serve, winning only 35% on her 1st serve. Two breaks to one down so far:-
Fran 2-4*

Jan · Hall of fame

Break, hold and break leaves Fran serving for the set *5-4

First set to Fran 6-4 smile

That was a turn around, from struggles early on to shear determination in the 2nd half of the set.

Fran is serving for the match at 5-4 in the second set

Well done Fran !!!

That's a fantastic win - Well done Fran. Fran, Emma and Katie B seem to be chasing each other up the rankings. If they could all stay fit for a few months it will be fun to watch!

Many thanks for the link. I enjoyed watching it, although nail-biting at times.
