That was certainly a lot closer than I was expecting. 3-1 up at one point in the 2nd set tie break and then Svitolina won five points in a row.

Honestly think that was the best outcome. A really competitive, long match. Tested her body and gets plenty of recovery time.

I'm sure Emma is going to get into the main draw. She is next in at the moment and there is a question mark over Madison Keys playing. Svitolina has lost her last 3 matches against British players after winning the 1st set. They were against Jo(her last ever singles win) Harriet and Heather.
Well !Addison has pulled out of Adelaide a few hours ago from a Tweet and definitely question marks re AO. There is a rumour she is pregnant but cant confirmm.
As it turned out Emma made the main draw with Lauren Davis pulling out. Now Madison Keys has pulled out with a reported shoulder injury. As a former Grand Slam runner up her place in the main draw it seems will be taken by another former Grand Slam runner up in Sara Errani.

Just noted that Jane O'Donoghue, who was with Emma this week, is no longer a coach with the LTA and is now working in finance.
Nick Cavaday takes charge next week.

Thats makes sense Paulisi, thank you. Looks like the killing Classic matches will be available according to comments on FB.
