 I  left watching Harriet's match when she was  losing in the first half of the first set.  When I checked a few hours later she had won.  Great news.

L64:- Harriet Dart (GBR) WR78 [Q] v Yulia Putintseva (KAZ) WR31

WInner to pay Coco Gauff [2]

Both Katie and Harriet are on the order of play for today - and Liv in the doubles.

The two singles matches are both on court 3 after three men's matches, so will be late evening our time. TNNS suggests 10pm for Katie and 11:15 for Harriet.

Liv and Tereza are first match on court 11 - so should be 4pm our time.

L32:- Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR115 (55+60) def Mirra Andreeva (***) / Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (***) CR200 (94+106) 6-4 6-3

That's a great win over the Russian pair. Mirra won the doubles silver medal at the Olympics and Anastasia has a doubles CH of 21. Their defensive skills were remarkable in some of the points, but Liv and Tereza are a very good partnership and hopefully will stay together for a while.

Olivia won. Her first win at a Masters 1000?

 I think that it is only her second match at a 1000 event - the previous one being last week in Toronto. But she has had one or two slam wins 

---

 And takes her to British number 1?!

 Yes, to live GB #1. Though Harriet could overtake her if she were to reach the final here 

If Harriet also wins the singles, she could go top in singles and doubles national rankings ! Go Harriet !
