Yay!! Heather has won!:clap::clap:

Heather turned it around and outplayed Gibbs in 2nd/3rd sets, well done! A meeting with Jo Konta next though!
Well done Heather :yahoo::yahoo:

Well done Hev, thanks for the scores guys :)
Well done. Hopefully that will give her some confidence. Sad for them that was virtually nobody watching.

Yes!!! Well done Heather!
Great!
Oh mixed loyalties in the next round.
Well done, Heather! :dance:
Supporting HW in this one, but won't be distraught if JK wins. H holds to love.

Jo gets lucky..twice net cords drop over, but Heather still breaks
greatunclebulgaria
10-03-2017, 19:25
Kinda want Jo to win simply because I think she will get further in the draw but so pleased with the way Heather is playing
Unfortunately she was broken straight back. Her serve let her down.
Has held. She is giving this her all, and seems less nervous than Jo.
Controversial thread choice!

10-03-2017, 20:45
After winning only 3 of previous 14 games, Heather just won 3 in a row to get to 4-5 but she couldn't win the next one so lost 4-6 4-6
Sad she lost. I thought she played well for some of it, but the serve let her down. 3 double faults in a single game meant she was doomed.
JAMES4578
10-03-2017, 20:49
Heather had a few good games but not enough consistency to really challenge Konta ,even if half chance when Jo got tight.

Don't have BT Sport so couldn't watch the match. Sad for Heather but let's hope Jo can go a long way now.

Heather back on court for Doubles - knocking up now.
exislander
11-03-2017, 00:06
Sadly Heather and partner lost 6-4 3-6 1-10
That's a shame. Heather really could have done with winning that after losing in the singles.
roytennisfan
22-03-2017, 19:03
Heather is 3-2 on serve v Tig
roytennisfan
22-03-2017, 19:23
Heather breaks for 5-5
roytennisfan
22-03-2017, 19:38
Lost 7-6 (4)
Heather now 1-4 down in the second. C'monnn Heather!
Hev and Evo lose at virtually the same moment. :crying:
...................... and with Aljaz a set and a break down it's not looking like a good day for the Brits.
Indeed! Hopefully Kyle can help!
Especially as Bedene also went out
roytennisfan
22-03-2017, 21:04
Not a good day, 3 Brits all losing, just leaving Kyle (+ Jo of course)
Hev failing to defend 4th round points in Miami means a drop in the rankings to 120+ and outside automatic qualification for the French Open.
JAMES4578
22-03-2017, 21:08
Disappointing all round, certainly bit of a blow for Heather with the rankings situation.

what will yesterday's racket smash cost Heather in fines ?
I don't know but it was pretty spectacular!

Well done heather, great win 6-4 6-1 .... 1am on Rouen, time for bed
Well done Heather - a good win :yahoo: :yahoo:
JAMES4578
06-04-2017, 23:59
Certainly good win for Heather, well done!
Brill stuff Hev keep going - retain that title!
Heather lost 6-4 6-4 to Angelique Kerber.
No shame in losing to WR1.
And a good haul of points from the week.
JAMES4578
08-04-2017, 12:07
Certainly good effort from Heather in defence of title, however failed to convert on any of her 8 bps whilst Kerber won 2 out of 5.
The result I was expecting. Shame but fair enough.
roytennisfan
10-04-2017, 06:49
Heather now down to 110 in new ranking but down further to 121 in live with more points dropping, playing in biel/bine this week with Naomi there as well and a place above heather in the live rankings
Heather playing in Switzerland this week and is on BTSport2 right now playing Kontaveit
Heather loses the tb 2 - 7 :crying:
Hev seems to have an injury and is having treatment. Although she is a set and double break down, she has elected to continue
More treatment on Hev's left leg
Sadly, an under-par and injured Heather loses 6-7, 2-6:crying:
JAMES4578
11-04-2017, 12:26
Pity Heather didn't get off to best of starts and was then injured.

Heather plays her qualifier 10.30 v Smitkova in Prague
Going all the way
Hev 5-4* in the 3rd!
Hev had 2 MPs but is now broken 5-6*
Hev lost the 3rd 7-5
:crying:
JAMES4578
29-04-2017, 13:03
Disappointing result, pity Heather couldn't find a way through.
Desperately disappointing. It's a fairly constant pattern with her. Lose the first, win the second and lose the third. Not sure what the answer is. Perhaps back to challengers for a bit.
themass15
29-04-2017, 15:54
I expect Heather will be glad when the clay court season is finished.
Just won in 3 sets against somebody about 10 places below her, in a French ITF tournament. Well done to her.
And Heather goes out in straight sets to the World No 268. What on earth is wrong?:-(
She had been a break (or possibly 2) up in the second set.
:sad:
JAMES4578
11-05-2017, 16:32
Unfortunately seems one of these frustrating performances from Heather, disappointing.
Hev has won her R1 match vs Tomanova (in Slovakia) 6-1 6-3 :clap:
Hev into a final set in R2.
A break up vs local WC Kuzmova 4-1*
Hev wins 6-3 in the 3rd :clap::clap:
Heather leads 3 - 1 and is about to serve
Ah I've just started following LS and it's 3-3 now.
Come on Hev!
Hev lost the first set 4 - 6
Hev gets the second set 6 - 4 :yahoo:

Now for the 3rd - Go Hev!!!!!!!!!!!!
JAMES4578
19-05-2017, 16:17
Hopefully Heather with the momentum, come on!
Sadly, she lost in the 3rd - 2 - 6 :crying:
Hev and Naomi B have just won the doubles title!

Wow! :clap: :clap: :trophy:
Hev's QR1 match up next in Paris
Go Hev!
Hev lost the first set 6-3

Well done Heather! I hope she has enough left in the tank for the final push into the main draw.
Heather on court now. The match is on Eurosport 2.
Oh dear - Hev loses the first set 0 - 6 :crying:
And, after a bit of a recovery, loses the second set and the match. 0 -6, 3-6 :crying:

At 0-6,0-3 Heather took a MTO then fought back to 3-3 but that was it.

Heather playing in Surbiton, so hope she makes the semis.
She and Rogers are walking out soon.
Heather and Rogers now warming up against Kuznetsova and Mladenovic.

Pity for Heather/Roger but at least took a set against tough opponents after earlier disappointment.
themass15
01-06-2017, 16:45
At least Heather will go to Surbiton now as that starts next week.
Hev has beaten Kudryavtseva 7-6 6-1 :clap:

Heather is serving to make it into the QF at 5-2 but raining, will face Katy (Dunne) in QF if she get there it will guarantee a Brit in the SF
She won 6-2 in the third :clap:

Hev was lucky to get her match completed. Dan wasn't so lucky.

Heather has just won first set 6-1 in all British semi at Surbiton
Yes - well done. I'm watching Scotland cuffing Italy 27- 3 (rugby) in the heat of Singapore - how mad is that?
Hev leading 4 - 1 in the second set
Hev wins the match -6 -1, 6 - 2 well done :dance: :dance:

Heather will face Rybarikova in the final

Easy win by Hev. I left after that match as I had been sitting in the sun for nearly 4 hours.
She plays Riske in the first round in Nottingham.
themass15
10-06-2017, 16:23
Let's hope she can win the final in Surbiton tomorrow before that.
roytennisfan
11-06-2017, 11:46
Not to be for Heather she lost 4-6 5-7
Bad luck, Heather - but she got to the final, and hopefully she will get as far in Nottingham
:sad: But well done Hev reaching the final.
She's on second, on Centre Court, today.
She lost 2 - 6, 3 - 6 today.
I heard, on radio five live last night, she's been given a wildcard for Birmingham.
Heather playing Svitolina today and loses the first set 2 - 6. On serve in the second at 3 - 4. Go Hev :thumbup: :thumbup:
Woo hoo second set to Heather 7 - 5 :yahoo: Great recovery
Sadly, Heather lost the third 3 - 6
It's a repeated pattern with her. Lose the first, win the second, lose the decider. She has lots of ability, but needs a coach who can help her focus and stop doing this. Yes she should have lost given the disparity in rankings, but she is capable of so much better.
themass15
19-06-2017, 17:23
So near yet so far
JAMES4578
19-06-2017, 17:33
Disappointing Heather couldn't do enough in the 3rd but still good effort,was tough challenge with Svitolina.

Heather playing very well, leading 4 - 2 in the second set, and serving
JAMES4578
26-06-2017, 15:21
Heather certainly going well against Cibulkova thus far, serving at a set and 4-2 up-let's hope she can keep it going!
greatunclebulgaria
26-06-2017, 15:24
OMG this is the Heather from years ago, dare I believe????????? even if she doesn't close it out she has to take belief from this
JAMES4578
26-06-2017, 15:29
Fails to take mp on Cibulkova's serve but now 2pts away, come on! Another 2 mps but Domi steps up and breaks back,though Heather tightening up somewhat. She must go for it again!
:yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: well done Hev
That has got to be the best I have seen Heather play in a long while in this match, even though she really lost her nerve towards the end just brilliant against the world number six.....7-5,6-3...#StayFocusedHeather :thumbup: BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
JAMES4578
26-06-2017, 15:41
Heather finally does take it 7-5,6-4 and a great win after looked like she may falter, well done!:cheer::cheer::cheer: A bit surprised with with the Cibulkova error at the end though.

26-06-2017, 15:45
WOW fantastic so pleased for her hopefully she can use this to kick start a climb back to the top 30 or even higher:GBflag::jitterbug::GBflag:
Well done, Heather. I agree, the best I have seen her play for a long, long time. Keep it going, Heather.
Watched it earlier. That was the Heather who has won 3 main tour titles. Good to see.
Well done Heather. Keep it going. :thumbup:

She did admit to being nervous at the end. Good she could close it out on a break of serve. And I agree, great to see Heather playing so well and good to see her smile so broadly again. Well done Heather!:dance::dance:
Hev leading 4 - 3 against Pavlyuchenkova

I really can't remember when I last saw Heather play so well and so consistently. 6-1 in style!
And she takes it. One more set please.
exislander
29-06-2017, 17:49
Unfortunately second set goes the opposite way.
But she has just broken back in the 3rd. Now hold Ms Watson - please.
JAMES4578
29-06-2017, 18:28
A bit topsey turvey and seemed to be going against Heather, hopefully now right back in it!
She holds 5:4 in the 3rd.
Strycova is trying to get the match halted on the grounds the grass is damp.
She has done it. Broke in the final game. Go girl, go.

Brilliant, well done Heather. Feared she might crash after her big win on Monday, but she's storming on! Would love a Heather/Jo final, but whatever happens for these two to be in the semis when the lineup was sooo tough is just fantastic.:clap:

Good on you Heather:GBflag:
Fabulous Hev!!!!!!!!
:GBflag:
A great day for our girls today! It's so good to see the Heather we used to see a few years ago. Tough day having to play 2 matches. :clap::clap:
She's first on, today. BBC 2 will be showing it from 11am, but only for one hour (very weird). They'll then return at 1pm (13.00pm).
JAMES4578
30-06-2017, 10:50
Unfortunately Heather outplayed thus far,Wozniacki taking first 6-2 but probably to be expected. Seems coverage will continue on Red Button at 12 on BBC, also on Eurosport.
Heather leads 4-2 in the second set
Wozzy having treatment off court
JAMES4578
30-06-2017, 11:21
Heather certainly got going,though now MTO for Wozniacki.
Second set to Heather - 6 - 3 - well done :dance: :dance:
JAMES4578
30-06-2017, 11:35
Great as Heather focuses to take 2nd set 6-3, hope she can keep pressure on!
Oh dear - Heather lost, but put up a valiant effort
JAMES4578
30-06-2017, 12:50
Pity for Heather as certainly had shot once she got into it and Caroline ailing at one point, however was tight in the closing stages. Still a great week which hopefully she can build on!
Heather, playing Zanevska, gets the first set 6 - 1..... well done :yahoo:
Heather wins the first set against Zanevska 6 - 1.
JAMES4578
03-07-2017, 17:18
Great start from Heather, hopefully keeps it going!
Heather now winning 3 - 2 in the second set.
Heather wins in the tb - well done :yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
Heather wins 6 - 1, 7 - 6 (7 - 5).
It's catching up on BBC 2 now if you want the rest of the tiebreak stress free. Well done to her. I have a soft spot for HW. Anyone know if she is playing Mixed Doubles again?

03-07-2017, 18:25
Well done Heather came through that tb with a clear head.
JAMES4578
03-07-2017, 18:26
Heather certainly should've finished it earlier and got tight, however well done in coming through in straights!:clap::clap:
