Larsson, never known as the model of the ice cool Swede, has been in pretty high dudgeon all night.
Which is shown again as Hev breaks back to get us back on serve
6-3 *2-3

Heather should have broken at 4-4*

Down double set point it rains.

Larsson found the corner at break point down; and now the set's gone 4-6 :(

C'mon Heather, dig deep :)

Not sure about this policy of giving Larsson a 3 games start...Heather holds nicely
1-3*

Brave hold and then a monumental game...which ends with the break back :D
3*-4

You've got to love Heather when she's in this mode

And hats off to Larsson too - it's a great battle !

This is a disaster for her immediate ranking but perhaps for Ozzie prep not the worst thing. Nice to see Joss and Anna supporting til the end.

Needs a good rest tomorrow as she travels to Melbourne.

Played better than earlier but should have broken in the second and then energy just dropped away. Her second wind to break back was impressive but ran out of gas. The miss on match point was heavy leg syndrome.

Played some nice tennis this week though. Looking much better than almost all of 2015
