I need more of this backhand in my life.

...and less of the forehand.

I agree Jodie's playing beautifully but I'm more impressed by her attitude on court. In the first set Cornet threw a right paddy about what she thought was a bad line call and got a warning. Then on set point Jodie hit a brilliant backhand which looked as if it landed on the line but was called out. She queried it with the umpire to no avail, but then just got on with the game and won the next two points. No signs of flakiness today.
