Super performance from Jodie. More patient than I expected, prepared to wait until the right moment to attack during rallies. Very aggressive on return against Sara's vulnerable serve. A bit surprised Burrage didn't attack the net more often, though clearly her approach worked. Errani with some superb volleys, though one very careless volley late on. Sara with impressive defence at times. Several super drop shots from Jodie.
