Brisbane Q3: Anna-Lena Groenefeld def. Julie Coin 2-6 6-4 6-4

Another tough match with many break points blown, but Anna-Lena did well to make the main draw.

well done ALG
she now needs to work on BP conversion

Good fight from Anna-Lena! Good luck in the main draw! Too bad Julie.

I really don't know why the two of them got into such a tussle when the loser of the match was assured of getting a LL spot anyway. They are both going to be tired after such a tough encounter. ALG has had two very tough matches in a row infact.

Well done ALG, good luck in MD!

At least they both make it into MD.

Yay well done ALG, great fight!

i´m so happy
i had such a bad feeling and thought she wil loose against coin

Good start into the new season for ALG with qualifying for the Maindraw

Keep it up ALG!

Both players are professional and why should either tank this match? It's also good preparation for the AO, anyway.

Nice fight again! Now good luck in the MD, ALG! :)

Good that she qualified ;)
But it was toughter than expected, against Coin and Görges

ALG, well done :bounce:

Coin, better luck at AO. Who knows, maybe Ana awaits, AGAIN :shrug:

Well done ALG:yeah:

I hate Coin's name. It's impossible to pronounce.
