Championship+Wimbledon+2009+Day+Eight+ebIDJoGvTZulLaura Robson has just begun her second round match of the juniors tournament at Wimbledon. She is facing 18 year old Sally Peers of Australia. The match is available on the BBC Red Button live as well as on the BBC website for UK viewers only. For those who can’t watch the match live I’ll be posting semi-regular text updates on this post.

To fit the match in it has been moved from Court 2 on to Court 4, so the girls don’t have Hawk-Eye available.

17:50 Things pretty even right now. Both girls holding their serves. Currently 2-2 in the first set.
18:05 Laura has won the first set! 6-3

18:10 Laura gets an early break in the second set, currently leading 1-0
18:27 Both girls have held serve since my last update but Laura has just got another break. Laura now up 4-1.
18:31 Laura wins her service game fairly easily. 5-1 up now.
18:35 Peers managed to hold her service game, Laura now can serve for the match.
18:37 A bee distracts Laura as she’s about to serve for the match at 40-30 up, she’s terrified of them!
18:39 And Laura wins the match! 6-3, 6-2 in an hour and three minutes. Great match, well done Laura!

UPDATE: Seems a lot more photographers were there today, we’ve added 26 new pictures of Laura Robson to our gallery.
