    *Dart 6-0 3-0 Fruhvirtova

    A wild forehand hands Harriet Dart three game points, and there's a grin on Dart's face as she gets a little too enthusiastic with a slice volley in her attempt to wrap up the game.

    Is this a bit of a change of direction? Dart goes down the line and misses, prompting a huge cry from Linda Fruhvirotva.

    40-0 becomes 40-30 and then we're at deuce thanks to some fine footwork from Fruhvirtova to get up to the net.

    Dart 6-0 Fruhvirtova*

    The second set starts much the same way the first did, with Harriet Dafrt racing out into a 0-30 lead.

    A slip behind the baseline doesn't cost Linda Fruhvirtova too much and she draws level as Dart spears long over the tramlines.

    Dart gets lucky with a little net cord, though, and it's an early break point to the Brit.

    It was an outstanding, spellbinding set of tennis from Harriet Dart. She has totally redeemed yesterday's disappointment.

    This is seriously impressive from Harriet Dart. The way she lost yesterday it might have easy to not want to play today. But she's a scrapper and it's great to see.

    Harriet Dart had a really tough match yesterday and she's on an absolute mission today.

    It is like she is out to redeem herself. She's so aggressive and on the front foot.

    And she's taken a leaf out of Vondrousova's book and used the drop-shot really well.
