I should perhaps mention that Sam has a doubles CH of 76 - and was still in the top 100 in February, despite not playing since July 2022.

Excellent biggrin

Play under way - and early controversy as a ball was called in that was over the baseline by around 2 feet - I think the umpire was unsighted.

ETA - decison reversed (or point replayed - I was typing on here and didn't see !)

No breaks of serve and A+I take the inevitable tie-break 7-4. They did have 4 break points during the set, but din't manage any of them.

Alicia and Sam take the second 6-1

the addict · Tennis legend

Lissey and Sam taken the second set 6-1, so a MTB it is.

70 points for the win - nett 20 for Lissey and up 1 to WR105. Sam showing on Coric live rankings at WR372, up 109 places.

Just one place gained for a title win is a bit frustrating, I assumed Lissey would be back in the Top 100.

She's 64 points behind the current WR100, but now 33 points clear of Liv who is WR106. Lissey has a lowest counter of 57, so needs some good tournaments to climb back up.

For an example, reaching the SF in Andorra would only be worth 57 points
