Ruby continued her strong showing in the Nationals eliminating 4th seed Sirena Waas. There is a top clash in the quarters tomorrow between Hep and Hannah, which I assume will be scheduled for one of the streamed courts

QF

(1) Isabelle Lacy v Francesca Simpson
(3) Hephzibah Oluwadare v (WC) Hannah Klugman
Ellie Blackford v (Q) Ruby Cooling
Abby Kelliher v (2) Mingge Xu

Sirena was miles off the pace from the bit I saw.

And I actually watched a fair bit (more than intended ) - I like Ruby's game - it's not up there yet with the top 2007-ers, but there's a lot to like there. Ellie will be tired too - she had a pretty hard match today against Flora.

Mimi won reasonably easily, she's a cut above, what can you say, but I've liked Giulia too for a while and she played well - hits a heavy ball, moves quite well too.

Hep v Mika was 100% one-sided

Clearly Hannah v Hep is the one everyone will be watching out for !

 My money on Hannah...

 Should be interesting - forgive me, as I know the answer will probably be that they played just the other week (!) but have Hannah and Hep played before or recently??

You know the answer already Yes - and Hannah won easily - J3 final

 The thing is, and it worries me a little, is I don't remember; or didn't - and I do know I have been told, so it sort of nagged at my brain when asking the question! 

Of course, I can see now she won 1 and 3 and it all comes flooding back to me! But sadly, it wasn't there in my brain...

I think I tend to skim without taking in details sometimes, so apologies if I ask the same question twice!

Hep having a bit of a mare. Hannah solid and constructing points well.

Mimi seems in another league and its all down to what she does.

Top match is interesting...
