Oh dear, oh dear! Let's hope she learnt something from that encounter, short as it was...

Oh dear, that's not good

Points overall were : 36 - 57, 22 - 27 on serve ( where she was broken 5 times out of 7 ) and 14 - 30 on return, so I think as sometimes happens the scoreline is maybe a bit more lopsided than the general play, but clearly she was still very well beaten.

Be interesting to read whatever Heather has to say about the match, she comes across as pretty honest in her assessments.

poor scoreline from heather today.
hopefully a good draw at the U.S.

Julia Carrot · All-time great

Yes, and even more comprehensive on points ( 56 - 29 ) as against Heather's match ( 57 - 36 ), which while not good suggested Heather got some sort of foothold into practically every game.

Cetkovska now beaten Ajumi Morita 6 - 2 6 - 2 in the main draw.

That's good news really, because it did seem very uncharacteristic of Hev to go down to such a big loss. It's beginning to look like Cetkovska may not be over-ranked after all!
