Konta 4-6 6-4 8-6 Makarova: Magnificent first serve from Jo Konta! That's game, set and match to the British number one, and she thoroughly deserves that - what a gutsy effort.
Konta 4-6 6-4 7-6 Makarova: Now then, Jo Konta gets a second chance to serve this out. Makarova's service game is suddenly riddled with flaws.
