Encouraging performance from Katie, return game was very strong and the first set was closer than the scoreline suggests. Something I can't shake having watched her more lately is her serve doesn't have the snap and speed it used to when she was younger which is possibly her compensating for her back trouble?

 She modified her service some time ago to protect her back

That makes a lot of sense, I remember her being a big server particularly for her height as she was breaking through. Hopefully it's something she can keep developing

Katie still won more prize money and got more points than other British woman this year - so chin up. Here's to continuity, progress, positivity, and future success

Just to back up what others are saying, Madison Keys waltzed through Eastbourne last week, without losing a set. Beating good players easily too, like Kessler who performed well in the 2Rd this week, Gibson, Maria, etc. None of them created as many break points, or broke Keys serve more than Swan did today.
