Q2: OBRIEN, Katie (GBR) 8 228 v GLATCH, Alexa (USA) 298

SMC1809 · All-time great

Heather finishes the match quite convincingly 6-1 6-1 smile

Julia Carrot · All-time great

And Heather takes the 2nd 6-1 also

Obviously not keen on Bagels, (over rated things I find)

Well done Girl

How did you beat me on that !!! Obviously a far faster connection than here in Staffordshire

Katie won't be the only one with ear problems if that's what happens!

indiana · Tennis legend

Well those weren't the most difficult 6 points ever to gather, though Katie contrived to make it a little interesting

I WAS SAYING YOU CONTRIVED TO MAKE IT INTERESTING, KATIE !

I do hope her ears get better, I imagine it will actually be quite disconcerting.

FQR: (q8) Katie O'Brien WR 228 v Alexa Glatch (USA) WR 298 (CH 102 in 2009)

MLdB is fresh from her first ITF title at Rancho Santa Fe last week but has lost her second match at Memphis to a Brit for the last two years - both straight sets main draw R2 losses to Annie K.

Katie has played Glatch twice before, losing to her 3 & 4 at USO Q in 2008 then beating her by the same score in Osaka a year later.

Annie K plays the Canadian Aleksandra Wozniak in the first round of the main draw. Possible meeting with 8th seed Vania King in the second round.

No top 50 playes in the draw.
