Emma was nervous at first, but got into the game and looks to be in control at the end there.

Some fantastic shot by both players but the nothing to loosen and free flowing tennis by Emma is great to see.

I hope ER can maintain this form and trajectory not only through this match/tournament but into next year and beyond.

If she can I honestly think she could be the next Serena.

She’s playing stunning tennis.

I've seen a few comments saying she's had an 'easy' run because her opponents have collapsed. I think that's really harsh, she seems to have a way of getting under her opponents skin, she takes advantage of every little error they make and without exception so far they've got pretty frustrated later on in the match.

The only common denominator is Emma, that can't be a coincidence. It's hardly been an easy draw for her and she hasn't even dropped a set.

I'm not a huge tennis fan but feel compelled to comment.

Absolutely fantastic performances this week. Truly impressive.

She's got it made. Looks, intelligence and talent.

Let's hope the BBC pull their fingers out and televise the semi and hopefully the final.

So good. Hope she's able to keep some private space and stay healthy. With a bit of luck there's a long successful career ahead of her.
