I guess a win is a win but hard to imagine Jovic won't hammer Harriet in the next round

 Yes but a junior who is19th in the world is not chopped luver

---

 I guess I was looking at her couple of appearances in ITF tournaments this year and basing it on that rather than her Juniors standing

Daniella Britton is JWR 20 and at 15 yo more on the up ( already ranked higher in seniors from a few appearances ). I'd expect Harriet to take care of Dani pretty handily and I certainly expected that match to be very much more comfortable.

So, will no doubt need to up a good few levels, Harriet.

 Jovic is another level to any of these though, WR13 and on the up. I see she is on the players council as well, so obviously motivated beyond playing tennis and presumably a bright cookie as well

 Oh, who is her coach?

Im impressed she steadied things after Muchova got back to 4-4, Muchova was stronger on the big points at the end though

Doubles draw has just been released

R32:- Anna Danilina (KAZ) / Desiae Krawczyk (USA) CR39 (6+33) [7] v Maia Lumsden (GBR) / Alexandrova Panova (***) CR85 (38+47)

R32:- Hao-Ching Chan (TPE) / Miyu Kato (JPN) CR72 (40+32) v Tereza Mihalikova (SVK) / Olivia Nicholls (GBR) CR56 (28+28)

Winners meet in the second round.

Danilina has teamed up with Krawczyk as Krunic is out for the season. Liv and Tereza really could do with at least 5 wins between here and in Wuhan as they have a lot of points to defend (605), and are still in with a chance in the race.
