Naomi ranked 194 to Olga 183. They don't seem to have played each other before.

That is an insanely strong 25k. Last DA is Gronert at WR203!

Blooming heck !

I see outside the Aus Open it appears to be the only tournament anywhere over 10K. And clearly lots of the girls want to be playing tennis again.

And Naomi having just won 40 points in Aus Open qualifying has 35 to defend from this week last year.

R1: BERTENS(NED)/BROADY beat SORG(FRA)/TOULY(FRA) 6-1 6-3

Naomi serves up a bagel in the first set before losing the second set 6-2. Going to be a tense final set I reckon.

Get that serve firing Naomi!

Naomi got a break in the final set and has just held from 0-30 down through multiple deuces to lead 6-0 2-6 5-2*

steven · Tennis legend

Strange, it showed 6-0 2-6 *5-3 then suddenly changed to 6-0 2-6 6-2 match over ... so I think Naomi has won but that was a bit weird - points get corected plenty of times, but whole games, all at once ... ?

Somewhat different to Sunderland next week, when Sarah Gronert will be one of the top seeds and the last DA is WR 400ish.
