Jodie's next opponent is either the top seed Ostapenko or Tauson. Tauson has beaten Ostapenko before, in the Luxembourg final. Jodie has played Tauson before and lost in two tie breaks so it was close. Let's hope Jodie gets to meet Clara Tauson next.
Tauson took the first set 6-3

And a match point saved by Ostapenko. Hopefully she'll be a little weary but a fierce competitor.
It just depends which Jelena turns up on the day. She can hit the court, the lines and beat nearly anybody or its her Normal game. Hope for Jodie its the latter.
Shame it ended a little bit disappointingly, whether through injury or just being outhit, but a really great week otherwise. Especially in terms of coming through some difficult moments with composure in the earlier matches. Well done, Jodie.
