She is only down one break. But she could just relax this set, and bring it in the final set!

She can't relax. This is Sharapova, she needs to be aggressive!

great job heather! I reallyt didnt think she had in in her, but she ran out of gas.
Thats why Marc I said that she shouldve just relaxed in the a second set, and not put too much effort. That comes with experience. A lot of older players, would let sharapova tire herself out. Then raise their game to another level in the 3rd set. She was always gonna lose the second after Sharapova broke.

But oh well, great match nonetheless!

I thought this would be a 6-1, 6-1 drumming so the scoreline is pleasantly surprising.

This is the kind of player I feel Heather will grow into - a solid counter puncher with a terrific attitude who can push the biggest names when they have an off day. I think she’ll get some impressive scalps in her career but will by no means be a world beater. Solid top 50 player for sure.

Whereas Laura Robson has all the making of a top 10 player but will need to dramatically improve her movement. Nice win today despite the retirement and has a decent chance in round 2.

Yeah I agree I think Laura has a better game but Heather seems to be 'ready' before

rafa is about to play

Just watched the boy in stripped pyjamas () and found out that it is a book Nadal recommends

Quote:
Q. Why do you recommend reading “The Boy in the Striped Pajamas”?

A. Because I found it very harsh, but, in the hardness, it has a message. When you do it to other people, it is not so bad; when they do it to you, it is very grave. They [the Nazis] killed everyone, but when it happens in your own home … Makes one wonder. There are always two ways of looking at life, from the same situation. Interesting
God he's deep! cause he doesn't speak perfect english he can sound like a dope, but he's a deep and smart individual.

Murray through. Robson out. Baltacha plays Kuznetsova tomorrow.

Lisicki also through after Venus Williams pulls out. Soderling pulls out too.

I saw parts of Nadal's first round match. I think he looked flat and a little slow off the mark but it's still early days. Plenty of room for improvement.
