Peter too · Tennis legend

Heather wins 7-6(2) 6-4

PaulM · Tennis legend

Yes! Lovely stuff.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Bravo, Heather !!!

Two set win.

PaulM · Tennis legend

Anne presumably keeping an eye in ahead of Fed Cup (and then perhaps doing TV work for IW next fortnight?).

Strongbow · All-time great

Julia Carrot · All-time great

Well done Heather and so great to see her winning smile

And Katie lost in 3 tiebreak sets 6(5)-7 7-6(2) 6(5)-7

1st serve 56% both players scored 277 points so literally nothing in it

Jan · Hall of fame

Great win for Heather

PaulM · Tennis legend

Katie

Was behind in the final two sets and Stearns served for the match a few times, but disappointing she didn't finish the job from *5-4 in the final set breaker. Was very close and a bit disappointing to not take the opportunity.

Katie not in form this year despite the promising start

mbturner · Lower Club Player

Heather battled away against a bigger hitting opponent and deserved the win. Brilliant!

Harriets match showing as cancelled

ETA Zhang withdrew

ETA again Does a LL get that spot or is 4 minutes before the match starts considered too late and it's a W/O?

So E Andreeva showing as an Alt in the draw. Bit rubbish as Harriet must have warmed up already now going to be rescheduled

Densher · Intermediate Club Player

Erika Andreeva has just shown up to face Dart. No reschedule, they are going straight ahead with the match. This will be an interesting encounter, neither player has really been able to prepare because of the late withdrawal.
