Yikes.

In their 3 US weeks so far Emily and Ingrid have played:

2 Doubles Grand Slam Finalists (McNally and Danilina)
A Mixed Doubles Champion (Hev)

And now they'll round it off with a 5 x Grand Slam winning pair!

Just goes to show the disparity between players that win matches in singles and players that grift and graft in doubles. Cant think of another sport where this happens.

And quite right as well, love the dedication. Make the most of any opportunity you have and keep going. Kudos

Drop the first set 6-3. Just the one break. Did have a deuce point to get back on terms but Siniakova hit a big one down the T. Nice doubles match.

Just held from *15-40, Siniakova having a strop.

3-6 1-0*

Super effort from Emily to save 3 match points on her serve, but the Czechs make no mistake and serve out a 6-3 6-2 win.

Overall a decent showing given the gulf in rankings. Few deuce points didn't go their way but that was the quality being raised on the other side of the net whenever it needed to be.

That first point in the final game needs to go in their scrapbook. Wonderful doubles from all 4.
