RE: Week 14 - 2026 Billie Jean King Cup - Qualifiers - Melbourne, Australia


The BJK Cup website shows Harriet v Talia as Match 4 and just a 20 minute break after the doubles. Also 15 minutes between the singles.

Harriet and Jodie take the first set 6-3, and then convert their *sixth* break point in the second set to go up *2-1

It's full advantage scoring for live BJK ties so could be a long way to go still.

Haha, well what do I know about anything. The girls were great (mostly), the Aussies were pretty poor. Amazing stuff.

I do like them finally moving the doubles to third match, it works better as Davis Cup has regularly shown. I thought this was going to go to the final rubber today, pleased it's not! They'll play one of the singles as a dead rubber I believe.

Yes, I got my Talia's and Taylah's mixed up. Either way, what a tie. Incredible.

Those two Aussies haven't lost a BJK Cup tie ever, or even a set, apparently. Go girls!

What just happened we went to Australia with the most likely result being a 3-0 loss and came away with a 3-0 win. biggrin

The whole team deserves at least an MBE.
