First set started off pretty well - amazing shots from both of them - Amelie's shot selection, agility, variation of shots... really great to watch and well matched by Ruano Pascal... ummm in fact so well matched she scored herself a break and it all went a bit UE-fest for Amelie and the first set just slipped away.
So... all to do in two... and oh my... if I thought that watching JJ was heard on the nerves - it was nothing compared to Amelie!! Such variable play - some great shots, some duff games... great/duff/great/duff- but she scrapped her way back to take the 2nd.
Now.. I would say she raced away in the third, but the great/duff/great/duff continued although somehow she scored herself breaks of RP's serve - I think because her UEs were mounting up too...
When she won - she was probably as relieved as all of us!!
Think mum was up for any more matches we could find - but after getting home around 10pm the night before I really wasn't keen.
She even resorted to bribery by way of clotted cream tea (yum) but to no avail - we did try and find the lesser spotted (or should that be spotty?) Safina/Szavay dubs match - but it was replaced with a Radwanksa of some description so we headed back...
Today hoping to see:
Venus/Keothavong
Jamie & Max
Andy Murray
JJ if at all possible
Tipsy!!!
That's all for the mo from Titchy-Pics Inc...
