You've GOT to take one of eight, no matter how well your opponent plays

Alice had done all the hard lifiting, beating the top seed in the semis

So the final was, quite fairly, more of a breeze

Am really thrilled for her. She's only won one singles title before, I think, back in 2019. And she is a real tryer, who's giving her everything to play her best. I've always said I'd love her to make the top-500 - that would be a great achievement
