Lily off to a not-so-flying start against Julie Belgraver
She's 2-4 down
Julie is 20, was about WR 50 as a junior, and has been doing OK to get up to the mid-500s in adults, but hardly soaring
And to note, Julie lost against Jasmine Conway. Mandy Carreras and Andre Lukosiute earlier this year, to name a few
Lily also beat her earlier this year in Macon - but only by 6-4 in the third
I only watched that early part of the match, and was impressed both by tennis, and the quickness of Belgraver. It's a pity she had to retire from the match.
