Can't see her progressing much further if she doesn't improve on tonight's performance.

A bit of a curates egg - good in parts.

Yes, far from Harriet's best but she's come through Slam qualifying a few times and could still do so again.

Amazing haul of wins! Don't remember anything like it from the last decade :)

Yes Harriet was struggling a lot with the weight of shot today, and wasn't getting many of her own groundstrokes very far past the service line. Hopefully normal service will resume shortly!

Well done Jodie. I was worried midway through the first set but she tightened up her game from then on, while Robin faded after a bright start.

Harriet got the win without looking that convincing. Surprised she handed Peyton Stearns so many opportunities to unleash those big groundstrokes.

Great stuff but Q2 looks much trickier, ironically only Harriet seems to have an easier match given how much she struggled in Q1.

I'm hoping Harriet was just feeling the pressure of making the clean sweep. Fab set of results

3 LL spots, Kenin out with Covid. Girls get to FQR

Only lost 8 seeds from qualifying so far so a long shot but still gives them 2 opportunities to get into the MD

I've never been hugely impressed by Mariam B's game when I've seen her in the UK (though could be completely missing the point). I've no idea about Christian but, given her CH and age, that's a true ranking. And from what I can see, she's really a clay player?

But any which way, that's a WONDERFUL set of QR1 wins (and Liam too) - as someone says above, never seen anything like it.

And I'm not going to rain on the parade by muttering about Harriet having to take three sets - she won, end of. As did they all

3 wins in the next round would be excellent, 4 amazing. Anymore a dream. Plus Liam of course.

Does E at 4.79 mean the odds youd have got for betting on all 7 to win? Seems a bit stingy, realise it is just maths, but I would have hoped for a better pay day if I had bet on all 7 to win as an accumalator.

What would we get for all 7 in Round 2??

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

No, it's estimated wins

i.e. out of 7 matches, we were expected to win 4.79

BUT we won 7 !

The odds were FAR wider, as you say - it's on steven's twitter somewhere (20:1 comes to mind but not sure....)
