But Poots is on very good form currently, so in my opinion unlikely she will go through.

Darn, so she might not win the title

Sorry, I went off Harriet this year at Nottingham, but Poots, whom I used to regard as a tennis delinquent, is now now on my 'favourite's list'.

Poots was in the main draw for Canada but pulled out before the start with a knee injury and was replaced by lucky loser Taylor Townsend. Then Dayana Yastremska retired in her 1st round match against Townsend. I wonder if these players will be fit to play this week.

Yes, clearly I have not been keeping up.

Boulter wins first set on second opportunity. Dominant.
6-2

markymc1983 · Club Coach

And completely awful in set 2 wtf

MrTSymonds · Junior player

How do you win the first set 6-2 (with chances to make it 6-1) and then win just 5 of the next 18 games!!!

MrTSymonds · Junior player

Dart following in her footsteps.
Wins first set 6-4 and then gets broken immediately in set 2.

Two three set losses sadly. Would have expected Katie to beat Linette on these hard courts really.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Elina Avenesyan got in as a LL - and prompty won

Shame for Katie - I thought she'd have Linette's number too

(But pleased for Elina, as her first ever event representing her new country, it obviously means quite a lot to her)

Blue_Belle · Club Coach
