Gemma Heath v (8) Lisa Piccinetti (ITA)

Gemma continues her impressive run, dispatching the 8th seed with ease.

And is into the final

Her previous best result at G2 was R16, so that's a brilliant jump. And is going to be another big addition of points, after the QF at Roehampton.

One out of two in the boys semis. Don't yet have George's score but from Twitter.....

There will be at least a part-Brit winner in the girls event as Gemma's opponent is Joanna Garland, who has a British father and plays occasionally on the British Tour

Girls F

Gemma Heath v (2) Joanna Garland (TPE)

Thanks for that, David - I'd forgotten the 'Joanna Garland' posts that went back and forth - and it's always good to keep an eye on our half-Brits coz you never know......

and George's score has now come up as 6-3 6-0 which is pretty conclusive....

anther big jump up the rankings.....

With presumably Anton Matus. right on their heels too....

What is curious is that (from what I've seen) the three of them are all quite different players: different physiques, different styles, different levels of polish and finesse..... It's rather like, whatever your personal preference, we've got a player to suit.

It'll be interesting to see where they all are in a couple of years time (not to mention 10 years time).
