Miyazaki played quite well, but Swan had all the answers plus extra venom in her shots. Miyazaki wasn't allowed to gain a foothold in the match.

Part of the learning curve, but never nice to get handed bread products.

 Yes, but Lily did pretty much the same to Isabelle Lacy

So now it's her turn....

Poor from Boulter there. Needs to get more balls in play.

 Yes, some really unecessary errors off the backhand on return of serve

She's not far off....

Fairly even first set but Yanina got the break at *3-4. Marginally the better player so far, putting Katie under more pressure, making less errors.

Plenty time to turn it around.

3-6 *0-0

Yes ! It was way more full on Monday and Tuesday (when any ticket could use it)

It seems such a shame....

To think as well if Katie S wins this title and Boulter loses today doesn't Swan become British No1 next week?

Watching the second set, Not alot going Katies way, Wickmayer just seems to take it up a level when she needs to. Maybe the first set was cloaser.

Yanina too good, Katie not good enough today.

 Really disappointing given it's been sold out for months. Not sure if people bought tickets hoping to see Jack Draper vs Murray or something and lost interest in it when that wasn't happening. Shame they couldn't return their tickets though so someone else could go.

Better player won. Good week for Katie B still though.

 Oh, I'm sure they'll all turn up this afternoon to see Andy

The problem is very few people want to see four matches

So the men's tennis (and Andy lovers) will get other stuff done this morning and then come and spend a nice afternoon watching Andy and maybe the other's men's match 

But they leaves it empty in the morning

Bit dissapointed. Katie B allowed herself to be bossed around and her backhand was a 'mare.

But won't let it ruin the day

Katie Swan has been a joy - and Katie B and Lily being in the semis was amazing too

Bizarre. Be that interested to make sure you buy tickets to something months in advance but not that interested to actually sit in your seat.
