It’s an incredible achievement and, surely, it’s not going to be a one off - even if is, no one can ever take this exceptional achievement away from her.

Sport once again proves its ability to dumbfound anyone who thinks they’ve seen it all.
Didn’t drop a set….that’s amazing. Other players have taken almost 10 minute “toilet breaks” at key times in games, the Greek guy did it v Murray, it’s allowed but it halts the rhythm of the game. I don’t think it did for Emma, it could have easily gone the other way like she alluded to when speaking after saying I’m just glad I didn’t do a double fault. There were so many break points you can’t just refer to one
