The winner of Emma's R1 match gets (7) Gauff or Siniakova in R2.
Hopefully Emma's ankle is on a fast mend. Her initial practice was reportedly very cautious.
The second practice was a bit better. I hope she doesn't take any foolish risks but with a relatively kind draw she's bound to be tempted to defend last year's points at least.

Yes, she wins it 6-3. Overall, pretty good given the circumstances of ankle etc. Think its important she tries to press home the advantage and not get dragged into a long nervy match
