Weeks 27-28 - The Championships, Wimbledon (grass)


'Winning ugly' Emma calls it, like the England football team.

Good luck to Lily against Kasatkina. She played really well at Eastbourne when I saw her last week.

Not a great start from Emma, too tentative and thats not the approach to take against an opponent with Renatas retrieving skills.

And Konta on commentarywould much prefer Broady, Croft or Robson


 Laura and Annabel were covering the match on Radio 5 live.

Well done Emma. She had to figure that one out.

So happy for Lily. Great achievement. And although Sonay doesn't look a winner today she's giving a demonstration of what she can do. Great achievement to be here as a qualifier.

Breaks for 4-2 in the second; she is giving a fantastic account of herself. 

Playing with a lot more clarity than I think Emma showed today. 

Interesting to see Jeremy Bates deep in conversation with Lissey Barnett in the stands.

Sonay now a break up in the second.

I think she can take this.

Great win for Lily and good to see Emma get that first win in.

Lily's win is her best ever according to Tennis Abstract - just ahead of her win in January over Ocean Dodin WR75

 Haha I know I was thinking the same thing. That was a screamer from Sonay on set point.
