ANNE WINS AND IN THE FINAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! biggrin

She thrashes Abigail Spears 6-1 6-2. Here's hoping for a tournament win.

This will give her so much confidence going into Birmingham and Wimbledon. Hope she saves some energy for these! biggrin

Brilliant!

You have to admire the consistency Anne has developed in Challengers, this more than makes up for the lack of top 100 players that she has beaten.

Where does this take her to in the rankings?

goldfish · Futures qualifying

What an excellent day for Anne. smile

Another title would be great.

Silver · County player

92 apparently. Puts her at 348 pts

WHEEEEE!

For the record, I am not on a slide. But WHEEEEEE!

Tutu · Club Coach

Wow!! Go Anne!!! Great result!!

steven · Tennis legend

How great to see a Brit reach the top 100 and keep on going

- let's hope she can carry this form over into the WTAs coming up and push on further so that she gets at least a few weeks of DAs to main tour events to show what she can really do.

DUSTY DICK · Club Coach

Wow, Fantastic stuff from Anne. If she takes the title will she go higher than 92. I notice she lost first round last year at Birmingham, Eastbourne and Wimbledon so if she can get a few wins from those events maybe she could push towards the top 80 and really set up the second part of the season. This type of success will spear the others on all the more.
