Week 18 - ITF W80 - Gifu, Japan Hard

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Himeno was playing in front of a home crowd, and the pressure of being favourite might have weighed on Katie.

As you say, Julia, slightly disappointing in terms of this match alone, but not at all disappointing, quite the opposite, in terms of the week as a whole

Sorry to break this to uou Julia but the match was streamed and all of Katie's matches from R16 are available to watch should anyone want to on youtube.

This match was played indoors.

Oh silly me. I looked everywhere except Tennis on Telly on Twitter which I now see had links, of course.
Thankyou. Were there links on this board that I missed too?

Himeno must have been playing well. She beat both 1st and 2nd seeds and lost only one set in the tournament and that was to another Japanese player.
