Chelsea Fontenel was a set and two breaks up serving at 4-1 in the 2nd set against the number 2 seed and then lost seven games in a row. Somehow she then turned it around again and went on to win. That suggests she could be more dangerous than her ranking might suggest.

THe ITF shows Chelsea Fontenel is 19 and had a JCH of 38 last year. She's only played 5 matches this year - the previous 4 were last week when she qualified and won a coupke of rounds in the W40. Certianly looks to be a dangerous opponent, so good luck Beth.

Lambda · Challenger level

Chelsea is at Arizona State. Played Jan to Feb at pos 3 with a 8-0 record, and moved to play at positions 2 with a 3-3 (including a 1&2 loss to Angelica Blake) and position 1 with a 3-2 record.

Marni was playing well, won the first set 6-3, but with lots of breaks of serve

Very tight in set 2

Now *5-6 but getting an MTO - and once again it's on her back :(

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

And she loses the second 5-7 :(

I didn't see any of the third set, it was only going one way

Pity. Still Marni has a big jump in rankings on the way with Roehampton also being added in the next run. Live rankings is showing WR382 (+48), but OER has the wrong points for today's result.
