She has the wondrous ability to (a) play defence and just soak up the pressure and put the ball back deep, (b) - her more normal game - to play percentage and distribute a heavy ball really well from left to right, and (c) when feeling relaxed, to chance her arm and hit some cracking winners.
No further joy in doubles but Hannah's second singles semi-final will be the second match on Centre tomorrow ( the first, featuring the number 1 & 3 seeds starts at 8.30am GMT)

Definitely didnt look at the live scores on the event website and read this the wrong way round. Pleasantly surprised to see a tweet from Steven on Twitter this morning from yesterday saying she had won!

Which bit of '6-2 6-1 for Hannah' and 'excellent display' was confusing?
But always good to get unexpected good news
I think she's about to start so I'm going to try and flick between that and a bit of the men's doubles in Oz - at least I'll have the two ends of the spectrum
