    There is no need for either player to change too much in this third set. It is just coming down to the crucial moments and what can be delivered.

    Kartal is kicking off the court brilliantly. Both players are maintaining their composure but Kartal will be frustrated to have let that second set slip.

    Sonay Kartal has got to put that second-set disappointment behind her and she does just that as she takes a routine hold to 15.

    Eva Vedder bounces on the baseline to try and keep her energy levels up. It was a bit of a slog of a second set.

    That's brilliant work from Eva Vedder!

    She had to be so tough at the beginning of that set to not get broken - talk about digging your heels in! She just kept the scoreboard level the whole time then just got better and better.

    She was able to take her chance. It's a big blow for Sonay Kartal, that's for sure. She just couldn't quite convert early on in the set.

    Eva Vedder has got the break! That has got to be her best game of the match.

    She upped the aggression, didn't get too frustrated with losing some of those break point opportunities, and she has ended up getting the breakthrough.

    She is on top in set two.

    Magnificent - massive striking from both players!

    It was Eva Vedder that managed to find the passing shot, but they were going at it toe-to-toe.

    What a great bit of improvisation that was, Vedder was tucked up with the shot and she just chucked it down low.

    *Kartal 6-4 4-4 Vedder

    That's a heck of a passing winner from Eva Vedder after a brutal rally.

  20. 'A big time for Vedder'published at 14:46 British Summer Time 12 April

    *Kartal 6-4 4-4 Vedder

    Naomi Cavaday
    Former British tennis player on BBC Red Button

    Vedder does have good pop on her serve and she needed those two excellent early points in that game.

    But Kartal is incredible on the defence from the beginning of points. Vedder makes the mistake of hitting to the forehand side which gives Kartal so many options.

    This was a big time for Vedder, she tried to play some different shots and it paid off. A big slice of luck for her.
