Today's win was Gabi's first in a WTA-ranked event this year but it's only her 4th WTA-ranked tournament, the others all having been 50Ks or above (losses to Naomi B, Tara and Linette)

I saw Gabi at Ilkley and I've seen Izzy before and i'm not surprised by that result. I think Gabi could progress quite nicely if she can stay fit and play more on the senior level. Izzy - i'm not convinced about yet. She has talent, but lacks that consistency required.
Isabelle's high ranking was due to 18pts from a 25k SF. When that dropped off she fell about 250 places. She is now clawing this back - will be interesting to see where she is in a few months as she has scored in her last 3 events and seems to finding some consistancy. Might have gone further in this one but for meeting Gabriella, who can trouble anyone on her day.
