Hopefully they will be inspired by the Davis Cup victory? All playing like top 100 players? Well Heather basically is a top 100 player and she could beat any of the Romanian players on the right day...
Very tough with Romania and the home favourites Hungary in their group.
Missing Laura, and also missing the experience that Anne and Bally brought to the team. I'd actually be satisfied if they just manage not to screw up and lose to Latvia! Any better than that is a bonus.
Oh well, nothing that wasn't expected. Impressive win for Heather today, she seems to be back on track this season. It was always going to be a long shot in the other 2 matches.
They play Hungary tomorrow for 2nd/3rd in the group. It would be a good time to give Tara Moore a tryout.
Gah. Another easy win for Hev against Jani, but then Konta got the first set v Bobos, went up 5-1 in the second set tiebreak, and promptly lost the next 6 points and the third set.
So it comes down to the doubles again.
Still, I'm pleased to see that Hev seems to be continuing to play well this season.
Even though Konta is higher ranked, could Tara potentially be a better Fed cup player? She also put up a really good fight against Kanepi at Wimbledon. I guess Tara just has to prove herself first.
Even with Laura the Romania match would've been difficult. They could've done with Bally or Anne still being around to play the doubles as well. I can't see Rae making the team again after going 0-3.
Great week for Hev though. We need to get her and Laura both fit next year. With Joko and Tara as backup then that may be the team that finally gets us out of Group I.
