Into the semis !

QF:- Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR90 (48+42) def Anna Kalinskaya (***) / Caty Mcnally (USA) CR1230 (133+1097 but CH49+11) [WC] 6-4 7-6(1)

That will be new CH's for Liv (35) and Tereza (37)  biggrin

*****

SF:- Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR90 (48+42) v Su-Wei Hsieh (TPE) / Shuai Zhang (CHN) CR21 (8+13) [5]
They haven't played before, although they have met with different parnters, most recently in the AO when Hsieh and Ostapenko won 7-5 6-2

 Marvellous and a new career high as well, great week for Liv!

 The 16th seeds at Wimbledon had a CR of 69 at the start of the tournament. So very, very close and a few more tournaments earning greater than 125 points (to cover their drops) and they will be there.

Jack Draper's match has been put back over an hour from it's originally scheduled slot. I'm not sure I can last that long now what with work waiting for me in the morning.  It's a shame and pretty annoying as well as  I was  looking forward to seeing whether Jack could continue his momentum at IW. I was optimistic after the economic win over Jemson Brooksby in the last round.  Good luck Jack (and Sonay, who is on even later tonight. Let's hope I wake up to read that we have two quarter finalists in this tournament in the morning). Who knows...

Sonay was always going to lose the match but it was an invaluable experience and she will have learnt how she needs to play against a better players. If you hit it straight back players of Sabalenka's class will finish the point. Onwards ..

That's a very unflattering scoreline. Sonay played very well, and had at least a toehold in every game.

It wasn't so much that Sabalenka's shots overwhelmed Sonay it was more that the pressure was relentless. It just never let up.

It was a big ask for Sonay though playing the world no 1.

Still a great tournament for Sonay. Just needs a bit more experience against the top players now to maybe just push her that little bit further.
