Boys & Girls: SAS Junior ITF 2, South Africa - Grade 5 (Week 43)


Lots of GB participation in this Grade 5 event. Several lost in the first or second round but as a summary of the highlights:

Boys:

In the boys, Piers Foley and Sam Rice both made the quarter-finals before losing. Piers (unseeded) did particularly well, beating the number 7 seed and losing in three sets to the number one seed.

Jack Macfarlane (also unseeded) has gone one step further though:

R1: Jack MACFARLANE (GBR)  def. Jake WEATHERHEAD (RSA)    6-0 6-2   

R2: Jack MACFARLANE (GBR)  def. Kris VAN WYK (RSA) [2] 6-4 6-2

QF : Jack MACFARLANE (GBR) def. Maxime DE CLIPPEL (RSA) 6-1 3-6 6-1

SF: Jack MACFARLANE (GBR) v Trent BOTHA (RSA) [6] 

 

Peter Molloy and Sam Rice are also through to the Semis of the doubles.

 

In the girls, Louise Ronaldson won a match before losing to the top seed, 7-5 6-3. And, again, in the semis:

 

R1: Holly THOMPSON (GBR)     def.    Cindy DORRINGTON (RSA)  6-0 6-1

R2: Holly THOMPSON (GBR)  def.   Maxine BATEMAN (RSA)   7-5 6-2   

QF : Holly THOMPSON (GBR)    def.   Louise-Mare BOTES (RSA) [6]  6-1 6-2  

SF : Holly THOMPSON (GBR) Vanja KLARIC (SRB) [8]

 

And Holly's also in the semis of the doubles.
