Harriet doesn't seem a happy bunny today. She won the 2nd set but is now 0-3 in the third and her body language seems more fatalistic rather than determined, as if she is expecting to lose. Every time she loses a point she lifts her arms up as if to say she expected nothing better. She is making a lot of unforced errors.

Does Detuic look like a one off partner, TA, or a longer term option?

 Too early to tell. Detuic partnered Amina Anshba (RUS) WR89 for quite a few (but not all by any means) tournaments last year so I think we'll have to see if (and who with) they are in Linz when the draw comes out Sunday lunchtime.

 IIRC Lissey has had a different partner almost every tournament since splitting with Liv.
