On Another note, was sent a picture today from Bournemouth and its absolutely jam-packed!!! All seats are taking, there are people with huge flags and banners supporting both sides. It's great to see our Women getting good support instead of just the men.

I'm glad as well Paul, but I don't think you typed that because there are no "mistekas"

LMAO@Joshua but you are so true ;)

LOL, you can't help but olve his typing effrto

any news on keothavong vs. cochran?!?!? :question:

Webley Smith lost to Podkolzina 2-6, 5-7 and Keothavong lost to Tanner Cochran 3-6, 6-4, 3-6

So our only winner today is our youngest player, 16 y-o Melanie South. I'm going down there tomorrow (as it was confirmed this morning, that admission is free and I don't need a ticket)

are you sure anne lost?!?!? because i thought she won the first set 6-4 and was down 1-3 in the second but you have it where she won the second set but lost the first?!?!? i'm confused!!!!! :sad:

Erm, I got them for BBC digital teletext. Let's check again, on www.bbc.co.uk this time. Still the same, it definitely has Cochran down as winning the first set, winning that match and USA leading the tie 5-3

ok!!! thanx bluepastures!!! must of just been me hoping!!! lol :D

well done Sasha ;) another win :)

Jane :)

Jane beat Cochran 2-6 7-5 6-3:D
So its 4-5 now!

Anne's playing now!

Jane seems to be a big match player,she will be a great asset to our FED cup team!

well done Jane :)

USA beat GB 7-4. Keothavong lost a tight three sets match. Good effort from all the British girls.

Who did Anne lost to?

she lost to Perry

YES!!!!!!!!!! I thought so!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO SHENAY! EXCELLENT WIN!!!!!!!! :D

Anne:rolleyes:

OH :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( !


:D Well done Jane though!

Well done Jane! :)

I'll be putting a few of my photos from yesterday on my gallery. Brilliant atmosphere. I was a couple of seats away from Podkolzina and Zalameda for most of yesterday's tennis, as most of the front row was reserved for the players apart from the end of each row.

Did you get any pictures of Shenay?

Erm, only the picture of all of the US team. I did get some others of her, but they didn't come out very well due to the light (obviously I couldn't use flash)

I would like to look at them anyways ;)
