    LXR won the first point of the match -with a backhand smash! :eek:

    just managed to catch the last few points before interval.

    no fixing on this one.

    proper sibling rivalry more like.

    Not many players can leave LXR rooted -and that's what WYH did with her sliced smash, to go up 11-9

    LXR missed two easy kills earlier and has to work harder to get her points. If it goes down to the rubber, I think WYH has the advantage as LXR's fitness may be stretched in the 10th match in two weeks.

    LXR had WYH on a string there for 11-13. Great tactics.
    These ladies are wonderful!

    Their rivalry getting intense. They know each other's game so well, without coaching,they'll have to come out with something different themselves to beat each other.

    Gill Clark keeps going on about WYH's round-the-head action being prone to error, but it really doesn't seem to be hurting her results so far.

    You get this feeling when you watch LXR and the shots she selects, that she's still experimenting with her game even now -what she can do, what she can get away with....

    you can tell that LXR is still experimenting with her midcourt drive shots.

    she keep trying variations of it.
