Harriet's 1st serve went missing in the 2nd half of the 2nd set but apart from that it was a pretty impressive performance, with Harriet hitting some very good forehand winners.
That's a great win. I knew it was an opportunity for Harriet but you always fear the serve will go missing. The 1st game of the 3rd set was a battle, possibly the key game.
Great to see from Harriet, she's certainly climbed back up the rankings with some good wins. She started the year WR 169 and was still WR 171 at the end of May.
Now as said, here she has defended 72 of her 75 W75 title points from this week last year, and for now is actually up 3 places to live ranked 112. And has a solitary 1 net point due off for the remainder of this year.
Can she close in on the top 100, indeed by the time the Aus Open main draw entry list comes out?
