Week 24 - WTA250 Nottingham, UK - Grass


Of course the tennis has to be great this week when I am stuck in court on jury service. I have managed to see just half a set on some days - a bit more today.

But what a great week so far, and some great wins over higher ranked players. The spread between the top 5 on live rankings from Katie B to Jodie is just 13 places and 61 points after today with Heather another 16 places and 62 ponts behind. Getting closer all the time, although Katie B v Harriet will extend that.

And a nice win in the doubles to round out the day. Took a few attempts but Harriet and Heather eventually get over the line 6-4 7-6(7).

QF:- Harriet Dart (GBR) / Heather Watson (GBR) CR432 (108+324) [WC] def Cristina Bucsa (ESP) / Makoto Ninomiya (JPN) CR 134 (79+55) 6-4 7-6(7)

QF:- Alicia Barnett (GBR) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR150 (74+76) v Asia Muhammad (USA) Giuliana Olmos (MEX) CR 52 (36+16) [2]
And the winners will play Harriet and Heather in the semifinals

 It's a tough one to call as I like both of them but I just about shade supporting Katie to win because of all her injury/illness troubles over the years. But good luck to both.

Im a big Katie B fan so Ill be routing for her. Its an interesting match up, if Katie comes out swinging and in good fitness I give her the edge

I give Katie the edge in that one too. Which inevitably meas Harriet will win 6-2 6-1 in 45:mins

 Do you have a Bet365 account? And does that work in Spain?

It's showing the matches and - in France, at least, it's blocked via Wifi but accessible via 4G/5G (the logic is lost on me but....) 

Otherwise, there's George Loffhagen playing - and you can get that live on the ATP challenger site

 Amazon Prime has them, but I don't know if you can get that.

 Best suggestion yet smile

Isn't it nice to see Jodie coming forward a bit, to finish off the easy points at the net, or mid court?

I mean, how many times have we bleated on about it here?

Yes Jodie playing really well, good feel at the net.

First time seeing Frech play, doesnt look up to much is she playing below her normal level? Jodie looking like the player ranked 77 here
