I just hope she keeps her feet planted firmly on the ground.

I'm pretty sure she will, she seems to have the right attitude, and she has Judy Murray keeping a friendly eye on her as well.

Laura 6-2 4-6 3-1 v Camila Giorgi (WR 85). Horrible stats, 12 breaks of serve so far. 8 DFs each.
Come on Laura!

Well done Laura. Tough match but good for morale. Apart from Fed Cup it's been a tough start to 2013 for the Britsih girls. Think she now plays Cornet who is the lowest ranked seed at 32 - she can win it and, if so, will overtake Heather

Finally Laura makes it!
DavidLaw @DavidLawTennis 22s Fourth match point saved. Here's a fifth! And she seals it. Big win for #Robson that. Can't say she played well, but who cares. Needed it.

Through at last - terrible toll of double faults for Laura. Made a real meal of her service game to win. Lost count of the match points.

Heavy weather now stopped play in Miami - thunder, lightening, rain. So Laura made it just in time!

Well done Laura!got the win just in the nick of time!
Doesn't sound like it was the greatest match in the world,but a win is a win,and it sounds like she really needed it.Hopefully it'll be enough of a boost to her confidence that she relaxes a bit-in my opinion she seems to play much better when relaxed.

Steven @GBtennis 56m Miami WTA: @laurarobson5 warms up for tomorrow by teaming up with former doubles no 1 Lisa Raymond to KO 6th seeds Kops-Jones/Spears 5&2 :-)
Laura stepping in for injured Sam Stosur. Another match, another win, should be good for Laura's confidence and morale.

Azarenka has now withdrawn, so winner of Laura's match will now face Madison Keys or the LL Lauren Davis. Davis is 5-4 up in the 3rd.

What's up with Laura's serve? Horrible memories of Olympics being dragged up - every time she served, my heart was in my mouth.
