One more winner from the other three matches. Not great from Joanna's marathon but good work from Katie.

...and Katie capitalises on her success against the seed to join Eleanor in round 3

R2

(14) Elena Maltseva (RUS) d. Kyria Dunford (GBR) 6-4 2-6 6-1
(5) Eleanor Dean (GBR) d. Erika Vogelsang (NED) 6-1 6-2

R3

Ann-Kathrin Wind (GER) v (5) Eleanor Dean (GBR)
(Q) Roos Van der Zwaan (NED) v Katie Boulter (GBR)

RBBOT · Futures qualifying

Eleanor & Johanna gave a walkover to their doubles opponents. I hope that isn't going to put Eleanor out of the singles - she shouldn't struggle to make the semis here where she'd meet #1 seed Demi Schuurs WR84.

PaulM · Tennis legend

more likely to be Jo surely?

RBBOT · Futures qualifying

Looks that way:

R3: DEAN, Eleanor (GBR) d. WIND, Ann-Kathrin (GER) 6-2 6-4
R3: BOULTER, Katie (GBR) d. VAN DER ZWAAN, Roos (NED) 3-6 6-4 6-4

QF: DEAN, Eleanor (GBR) 5 vs MALTSEVA, Elena (RUS) 14
QF: BOULTER, Katie (GBR) vs TIG, Patricia Maria (ROU) 2

DavidC · Tennis legend

Eleanor had to come from behind, but makes the anticipated clash with the top seed, who has gained a lot of her points in doubles but has won her last 9 singles matches in straight sets

QF

(5) Eleanor Dean (GBR) d. (14) Elena Maltseva (RUS) 3-6 6-2 6-3
(2) Patricia Maria Tig (ROU) d. Katie Boulter (GBR) 6-4 6-2

SF

(1) Demi Schuurs (NED) v (5) Eleanor Dean (GBR)

DavidC · Tennis legend

One of Eleanor's best wins on junior ranking gives her the chance of a second successive ITF title. Her Russian opponent is yet to drop a set.

SF

(5) Eleanor Dean (GBR) d. (1) Demi Schuurs (NED) 4-6 6-4 6-4

F

(5) Eleanor Dean (GBR) v (4/WC) Anna Danilina (RUS)

Maza1987 · Challenger level

RBBOT · Futures qualifying

Eleanor retired in the final, 6-3 4-2 down. Her ranking should be around 250 next week.

Oh, what a shame. I hope it's nothing serious.
