At the table South made the obvious lead of her singleton. Do you think this was a good idea?

Declarer won in hand and immediately led heartQ. South covered, won the next heart with the jack, led a club to her partner's ace and received an unnecessary diamond ruff. clubK was the fourth winner for the defence.
