It took Alicia a remarkably long 1.5 hours to win 6-2 6-3
But she did win in the end
So all's good
Second set was an hour, there was a 15 minute spell where Alicia's level dropped and it took a couple of long games for her to get back on track but I still expect her to win the tournament in this field

Been a major fan of Alicia since age 17 on grass, so it would be lovely for her to win here, but I'm not sure she's fully back yet - she's had a lot of three set matches recently, matches that she should have found easier
Dani clocks up what I think is her first ever singles victory in adults
And a top-1000 win, against someone who was previously top-250
And playing very nicely, 6-4 6-2
Should be a senior ranking for Dani. She should have 1 point from Ilkley WTA 125 MD R1 loss and 2 points from Wimbledon QR1 loss ( though the WTA site doesn't seem to recognise her Wimbledon outing ). So that would now be 7 points from 3 counters.
