fran won the doubles title last week with Kempen.

But for some reason they played with different partners this week - and Kempen+ won their match, but Fran (and Totka) lost out 10-8 in the MTB in theirs :(

The winner of the all GB tie will play 18yr old German Jasmin Jebawy, who is the 7th seed, but I would thoroughly expect either of our girls to beat her.

Well done to Fran, she seems to be back on a bit of an upward curve.

FINAL: (5) Francesca Stephenson WR 783 v (7) Jasmin Jebawy (GER) WR 1037 (CH 923 last month; 18yo junior CH 216 in 2012)

It is Fran's first Futures singles Final since her comeback from injury - first since Glasgow in January 2012, in fact.
