Great win for Katie, to be honest I thought Saville could be too much for her after how Emma struggled against her in Mexico last year.

A shame about Jodie, two steps forward, one step back but almost certainly in the Top 100 and continuing to improve unlike Harriet.

Sonay like Swanny unlucky with the draw, hopefully she can have a good Hard court swing ahead of US Open qualifying.

Krejcikova is getting pummelled by Andreeva.

And she's just retired. So shows what could have been if Heather could have won her second set yesterday...

 I think Mirra's groundstrokes were too strong - she is showing lots of promise for a 16-year-old - into round 3 having also come through qualifying. Looks like her ranking is about 80 now and reached the same stage at RG. Impressive. Shame for Heather but.....

Tomova doing a nice job of working her way into this match and figuring out how to trouble Katie after being blitzed in the opener. But Katie has got it back in serve, a very different match though.

*2-3

 Surely Katie has this now 5-2 up final set. Well done. Reaching the R3 two years in succession. The next match-up looks a bit more challenging, though (Rybakina or Cornet), but never say never!

A double fault, insanely tight forehand that hits half way up the net. Great serve, then wins a ludicrous point that was both brilliant and diabolical. Gets match point, almost perfect serve but Tomova gets it in play and Katie misses a short ball she should have made. Nets a backhand on the second, then puts a forehand away to win 6-0 3-6 6-4.

Well done!!
