Not quite sure how they managed to pull that off - they were trailing by a double mini-break in the MTB and looked out of it !

There are five qualifiers in the last eight. Perhaps going through qualifying gives players an edge in the main draw as they adjust to the surface.

 I think thats a good shout, Peter, re surface change and qualifiers - good to take advantage though, for Emily.

 Apparently not. That's a shame, and a couple of tennis breakups for Tara that can't be easy. Minnen and Van Uytvanck were also both in Surbiton, and that was a pretty bad breakup.

 Krunic has formed a good partnership with Aoyama this year following a long term injury. And Bektas was focusing on singles having been a successful doubles player. A tough final.

 Wikipedia entry says: Tara was previously married to fellow professional tennis player Emina Bektas. She was previously in a long-term relationship with her former doubles partner, Conny Perrin.[15]

Emina's wiki page says they are still married. Not sure if that means they are divorced or just apart but that is a shame for Tara. The doping situation cant have been easy and off the back of the pandemic stopping tennis, it cant have been easy.
