I know this isn't the right thread obviously but as I can't see the relevant one Ellie Dean has made the quarters of a Grade 2 tourny in Luxembourg beating the number 4 seed WJR 90 in the L16. I am pleased to see her take on more higher grade junior events. This will result in her ranking shooting up and then she will be able to play the junior grand slams, which she has the class to make a mark at.
