Ruby wins 
(Q) Ruby Cooling def Leena Friedman (USA) 3-6 7-5 6-3

 A nervy end.  Ruby came from 1-3 down in the decider to 5-3 40*-0 but needed 5 matchpoints to get over the line against a player who was making a lot of balls

Finally at the 11th time of asking Oli has a grand slam singles win  He was behind for much of the third set, but once he levelled at 4-4 he looked the stronger, and played an extraordinary tiebreak, winning all 10 points (only the last one was slightly fluky) to win 4-6 6-2 7-6(0)

 Nice to see Hannah get a 'simple' win, no slow start, no wobble

None of the British girls playing together in doubles

(which I like - there's plenty of time to play together at NTC organised get-togethers)

Hannah is with Junior Wimbledon Singles Champion, Pohankova

Mika has Kristina Penickova (who's won a lot of doubles titles with twin, Annika, who's injured at the moment)

Ruby has a play, with Nilsson

Brooke is with Cvetkovic

And Allegra with Tupitsyna

 I see Hannah and Mika and their partners are first and second seeds, respectively. Could the junior girls be our best chance at some sort of silverware this US Open?!
